Rating: Summary: Here is where you start! Review: The Absolute Beginners Guide to the Alto Saxophone is exactly that, a guide for the absolute beginner. If you have little or no experience with music or musical instruments this is the place to start. It shows you how to assemble, care for, and blow into your saxophone, as well as showing you the absolute basics to be able to begin to read music. There is a finger chart, and illistrations of the finger positions for playing each note that the book goes through. The CD is extreemly helpful, especially if you are unsure as to how the saxophone is intended to sound. The CD goes through the notes so that you can compare the sound, and it takes you step by step through basic notation. It also helps you get a feel for how to count beats. I have found this guide very helpful for learning on my own. It help in giving me a little direction when all I had was an instrument, an intrest, and a lot of questions.
Rating: Summary: Good For Beginners Review: The book is good for beginners because it is a picture book. It is very helpful for those who have a hard time reading music and remember note names.
