Essential Elements 2000 Book 1 - Alto Saxophone
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.
This item has a difficulty rating of 1 on a scale of 1 through 6, with 6 being hardest.
A piano accompaniment is available for this book.
A CD is included with this book.

Another Product You Might Enjoy
From the "Music Minus One" series comes this delightful collection of easy to medium duets featuring you playing along with (on the accompanying CD) all-star instrumentalist Hal McKusick on alto saxophone and the Benny Goodman rhythm section of George Duvivier on bass and Bobby Donaldson on drums. Designed for the the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year player, these duets are also a joy for the professional because of the great music presented in multiple jazz styles. With the accompanying CD you hear both saxophone parts played in stereo, then each duet is repeated, first with the 1st part omitted and then with the 2nd part omitted. That way you can perform either of the saxophone parts. This natural setting is the best way to learn and experience the time and feel of jazz music.
