James Rae - Easy Studies In Jazz And Rock For Saxophone Book 📚

26 Easy Jazz & Rock Studies For Beginners

"James Rae - Easy Studies In Jazz And Rock For Saxophone" is a beginner-friendly book featuring 26 easy jazz and rock studies for saxophone players. This book is designed as an introduction to phrasing in jazz and rock styles at an elementary level, making it suitable for those who are just starting to explore these genres.

The book is divided into two sections: Jazz and Rock. In the Jazz pieces, players are encouraged to perform all quavers (eighth notes) in swing time, which is characteristic of jazz music. In contrast, the Rock pieces are meant to be played as written, with straight quavers.

"Easy Studies for Saxophone" can serve as an ideal primer for saxophonists who plan to delve into more advanced material like the "20 Modern Studies" (UE18820), which is also part of the same series. With 36 pages of accessible exercises and musical examples, this book provides a solid foundation for saxophonists looking to develop their skills in jazz and rock phrasing.
