Saxophone Basics Pupil's book offers a fresh design, clear technical drawings, fun illustrations, new activities, pull-out fingering chart and of course all of the great tunes featured in the original Saxophone Basics. Starting at absolute beginner level and progressing to Grade 2, it contains:

  • a wide range of repertoire, including original pieces and well-loved favourites from every genre
  • warm ups and fun original exercises
  • invaluable fact files, quizzes and technical advice covering notation, general musicianship and care of the instrument
  • helpful fingering diagrams and rhythm boxes

I love this book; it's brimming with repertoire that will really appeal to young saxophonists. Definitely the best book currently on the market.
