Summary of This Book
This saxophone sheet music collection brings together 60 well-known pieces selected for playing enjoyment and musical progression. You will find a very broad overview: soundtracks and film themes, jazz standards and blues, essential pop titles, as well as classical pieces adapted for the instrument. The goal is clear: to offer pieces you want to play again, while consolidating the basics (rhythmic setting, note holding, articulation, breathing, dynamics).
The content covers iconic universes, with, for example, themes from musicals and cinema such as "A Whole New World", "Can You Feel The Love Tonight", "My Heart Will Go On", "Mission: Impossible", and "Moon River". On the jazz and standards side, the book highlights sure favorites such as "Fly Me To The Moon", "Satin Doll", "In A Sentimental Mood", "The Girl From Ipanema", and "Perdido". To work on musicality and phrasing, essential classical repertoire pieces are also included, such as "Clair De Lune", "Gymnopedie No.1", "Jesu, Joy Of Man's Desiring", and "Largo". Finally, pop and soul titles complete the collection (for example "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay", "Bridge Over Troubled Water", "Stand By Me", "Yesterday", "Fix You" ), for a versatile collection, ideal for lessons as well as musical entertainment.
