Description The Legendary Series: Saxophone is a luxurious, limited edition book, featuring 100 expertly arranged pieces for Saxophone, and beautifully bringing together legendary classical themes, jazz standards, show-tunes and timeless pop songs. The music reflects everything from the Saxophone’s mid-19th century arrival in marching bands to its later association with performers like Charlie Parker, John Coltrane and John Harle. Alongside the beautifully presented repertoire is a selection of illustrations and commentaries on the lives of many celebrated saxophonists and composers. Together they make this highly collectible volume a lavish and permanent addition to the bookshelf of any Saxophone lover. It should be noted that the chord symbols above the stave are written for an accompanying concert pitch instrument, i.e. Piano or Guitar. This is to allow the accompanist to read from the same score as the soloist.
