Product Description Designed for the alto saxophone learner. Pictures and text teach how to maintain the instrument, changing and using reeds, finger and mouth positioning and producing notes, scales and songs. CD provided for listening and accompaniment. Customer reviews Go for it!  by .. Andres F. Rodriguez (NYC)
Excellent beginners book. Just as the name of the the book "Absolute Beginners." I've learned a lot with this book. The CD that comes with it is great. You get to listen to the song and practice it as well on your own which i think is great. It also teaches you how to read musical notes and if you forget some notes and where they go in your fingers, it also has a page with all of them with pictures to help remember (it has been pretty useful to me). So if you are planning on learning how to play Sax, you definitely should get this book, you won't regret it.
Very recomended... by .. FranciscoMx (Monterrey, Mexico)
This book is really a step by step guide... the CD is very helpful for listening how the notes must sound.The photos inside are very helpful... Estos libros son una super ayuda para los que nos gusta avanzar sin maestro...las imagenes para la posición de los dedos es de mucha ayuda...el cd te dice como debe sonar cada nota... muy recomendado...
Absolutely Essential for Beginners - Five Stars! ***** by .. Jim Francis (Miami/London/Negril)
I bought this with several other highly recommended books including "Art of Saxophone Playing" by Larry Teal (also great!). I found this beginners book essential once I actually start to play the sax. It is very clear and practical. It has the best photos of finger positions for specific notes... much better than other books.
You will be glad (like me) to have it right there when you first start to blow notes from your sax...
That's the highest recommendation I can give!
first time Sax player  by .. Ruth M. Falk ()
good book for beginners easy to learn from before taking classes
Super book for the starter by .. Gediminas Palskis ()
I have this book only 2 weeks and wonder how perfectly and mature it's structure! It seems small book, you hardly find something in deep.. But... it has amazingly well sequence of learning, relevant tips. CD software is not working in Windows XP, but I extracted audio tracks and play them separately. Audio tracks helps a lot to follow the progress of learning. Respect for authors of this book!
