4.0 out of 5 stars For beginners and even for more advanced saxophone fans, 2 Oct 2003
By Harri Rautiainen (Espoo Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The size of this book may puzzle you first; it resembles an airline timetable or travels guide. However the 132 pages promise a lot of content. This book is a really delightful surprise. Besides the fact that the print quality and typography is superb, the subject is thoroughly covered and illustrations are well rendered and informative.

Who should buy this book? This should definitely be the first book to land in the hands of a newcomer to the saxophone world. All the necessary information is there. A more experienced player planning to replace his/her sax will also find the instrument core sections valuable. This book stands out in its practical approach, covering various aspects of buying, owning and playing the saxophone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for the beginner., 18 Aug 2001
By A Customer
I found this to be a superb companion to the Saxaphone. It is a perfect companion for the beginner like me. It explains the development of the instrument to its present day form in a logical manner. Detailed chapters provide information on all apsects of the mechanics & playing of the instrument but does it without baffling the reader with too much jargon. Guides you through exactly what to look for when buying an instrument & gives you the confidence you need at the onset.
