This is an outstanding instruction book, specifically for alto saxophone, which teaches a beginning instrumentalist all of the basic skills necessary to play the instrument. The book features 180 short songs and etudes, which are used to learn new notes, rhythms and styles, as well as to reinforce the previously-learned material. There are also several band arrangement songs, in addition to a concert piece (with piano accompaniment included) and two like-instrument duets. As an added bonus, this book also features sixteen etudes from the famous Rubank method books, seventy-two one-measure rhythm patterns, and a one page guide to creating music.
 
Add all of this music to short lessons on music history and music theory, include a fingering chart, throw in a compact disc that provides accompaniments for lessons 1 - 58, and you have a book that is clearly the best in its class. We are recommending this book (and the optional 3 CD set which accompanies lessons 59 to the end of the book) for all beginning instrumentalists, regardless of age.

Product Format: Instruction Book

   This product has a difficulty rating of 1 on a scale of 1 through 6, with 6 being hardest.

"Moments Of Swing" is a fun collection of original songs presented in the styles of Jazz, Latin, and Swing. Each of the ten songs is largely based on the chord charts of well-known jazz standards from composers such as George Gershwin, Miles Davis, Cole Porter, and Antonio Carlos Jobim. Creating new melodies for existing charts is a composition technique often used by jazz musicians. This technique offers students of this book the opportunity to improve their skills at improvising to chord charts of well-known standards. At the same time, they will be exposed to fresh, original material. In addition to 10 great songs, "Moments Of Swing" includes a CD. The CD contains recordings of each song: first as a solo with accompaniment, then as just the accompaniment so the student can play along. The accompaniments are recorded by a jazz combo and they sound really great!
