L''uvre pédagogique anglophone en deux volumes The Saxophone Method s'adresse aux débutants sans notions musicales comme aux saxophonistes d'un niveau avancé qui souhaitent rafraîchir leurs connaissances ou affiner leur technique. En commençant avec les bases comme la posture, la technique respiratoire et l'embouchure, la méthode permet une pratique motivante grâce à une sélection de pièces du monde entier aux styles variés. Des pistes MP3 enregistrées par des professionnels sont disponibles en téléchargement gratuit et donnent le sentiment de jouer, dès le début, avec un grand orchestre. Les deux volumes (Repertoire Books, ED 13921 ED 13922) proposent un large choix de répertoire, calqué sur la progression de la méthode. Le volume 1 guide pas à pas les bases du jeu comme la posture, les doigtés, l'embouchure et la technique respiratoire ; des textes courts et informatifs sont illustrés de dessins et de photos. On peut être accompagné dès les premières pièces. Le volume 1 va du Mi au Do aigu en comprenant tous les demi-tons et permet ainsi de poser de bonnes bases pour jouer en orchestre ou à l'école. Le volume 2 s'étend progressivement dans le registre aigu jusqu'au Ré aigu et complète le registre grave jusqu'au Si. Des exercices et des morceaux adaptés consolident les acquis de l'élève.

These methods provide complete courses for players off all ages, guiding students from their first note to 'classics', together with compositions by contemporary writers. Each book is accompanied by high quality rhythm section tracks recorded on compact disc. Right from the start, students can enjoy authentic jazz sounds, playing in the company of professionals. With step-by-step instruction and a progression of specially written pieces, the fundamental elements of good technique are introduced alongside the rhythmic subtleties of jazz. Improvisation is encouraged from an early stage and is given direction through the systematic study of scales and arpeggios and advice on ear-training and chord patterns. With supplementary suggestions for listening and reading, and an Appendix containing all the chord progressions for 'live' accompaniment of the tunes, The Jazz Methods are ideally suited to both students working alone and those learning with a teacher. John O'Neill has a solid understanding of jazz and how it can be taught. I highly recommend his educational jazz materials. (Jamey Aebersold) ...a rare opportunity for a new player (or a more experienced one) to develop a really musical facility. A rare addition to the jazz improvising library. (Lee Konitz, international jazz saxophone soloist) Following on from the best-selling Jazz Method for Saxophone, Developing Jazz Technique for Saxophone will help intermediate players take their jazz skills to a new level. The 22 pieces are written in a variety of jazz styles, including reggae, jazz waltz, bossa nova, calypso, New Orleans, South African, salsa, samba, blues and swing. Special emphasis is given to helping students improvise over chord sequences, such as the II-V-I progression. Idiomatic effects such as vibrato, subtone, glissandi and 'bending' notes are dealt with, and there is a special chapter on overtones. Several new scales are introduced, including the whole tone and diminished scales, and a special section on patterns contains many ideas for practising in all 12 keys. A superb rhythm section provides backing for all the pieces and exercises on the accompanying CD.
