My second saxophone instructional book, "SAXOPHONE - Everything Sax Players Should Know!", goes into greater detail regarding elements of jazz and R&B playing.  I elaborated more on topics such as pattern writing over specific chord changes, developing one's altissimo playing abilities, creating a "Bag of Tricks" to use with your playing, etc.  I'm confident that this book will FINALLY make sense of jazz theory and jazz playing to any serious sax player once and for all.

HOWEVER, I highly recommend you use this book AFTER you've used my first book.  The first book re-enforces the basics and goes way beyond, discussing scales (which is vital for pattern writing), general practice tips, equipment basics, etc., and it has some great stuff in it that you can add to your "Bag of Tricks".   I hope you find this book to be very informative and helpful!

  Also, be sure to check out the ON-LINE SUPPLEMENT for audio examples regarding this book's "Bag of Tricks" section, and more.

Take Care,
