Par LONDEIX JEAN-MARIE. '...Après le premier cahier à l'usage des débutants, le second vise à rendre séduisante l'étude progressive du saxophone alto, soucieux d'insuffler aux élèves des accoutumances de travail efficientes et attentif à la divergence de leurs aptitudes respectives. Les problèmes du phrasé et de l'accentuation y sont abordés au même titre que ceux d'articulation et de respiration. Réfutant la sécheresse et l'aridité, il consiste en une série de textes brefs, judicieusement gradués en leur diversité, nantis d'annotations adéquates - les uns sont empruntés à bon escient au folklore, les autres adaptés avec discernement des thèmes de Maîtres du passé ou conçus spécifiquement par des compositeurs contemporains sollicités à cette fin. La préoccupation d'une base technique indispensable n'exclut guère celle de la musicalité toujours en éveil, en cet ouvrage élaboré sous le double signe du scrupule et de la clairvoyance... ' René Bernier En composant cet ouvrage, l'auteur a cherché avant tout à faire du jeune élève non seulement un saxophoniste mais encore un musicien. Sa seconde préoccupation a été de l'amener le plus agréablement possible, et si jeune soit-il, à 'posséder' son instrument - par exemple, à pouvoir jouer un texte nouveau en première lecture, sinon en seconde. Pour cela, les 'formules de mécanisme' susceptibles de l'aider à s'affranchir rapidement des premières difficultés propres au saxophone (sans omettre les difficultés de lecture) n'ont pas été ménagées. De même que pour le premier cahier et tenant toujours compte des possibilités actuelles des jeunes écoliers, chaque leçon correspond, en principe, à une semaine de travail et le cahier au degré 'Préparatoire'. A titre d'exemple, il est proposé pour chaque séance de musique: 5 à 10 minutes de Sons Filés et Sons Droits, 10 à 15 minutes de Gammes, 10 à 15 minutes de Formules de Mécanisme et 5 à 10 minutes de morceau - version anglaise: Playing the Saxophone - Editions Henry Lemoine - version allemande: Saxophone Spielend Leicht - Schulz (Fribourg) - version italienne: Il Sassofono nella nuovo didattica - Ed. Berben - version espagnole: Saxofon Ameno - Real Musical (Madrid) / Niveau : Assez Facile / méthode - études / Méthode / Saxophone

Par O'NEILL JOHN. 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) The Saxophone is, for many, the instrument of jazz and there is an enormous and exciting repertoire waiting to be explored by newcomers to the instrument. 'The Jazz Method for Saxophone' will guide beginners of all ages from producing their first note on the saxophone to the performance of full-blown jazz pieces, including 'classics' by Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Sonny Rollins and Horace Silver, as well as contributions from leading contemporary jazz players and composers. Backing for all the music-specially recorded for this method is provided on the accompanying CD so that, right from the start, student saxophonists can enjoy an authentic jazz sound, playing in the company of a top-class rhythm section (bass, guitar, drums) used later to support first attempts at improvisation. / Méthode / Méthode / Saxophone
