Blowout Sax: You don’t have to read music...so anyone can learn
I**R
This is a Proper Saxophone Tuition Book
Delivery was as expected and quick. This saxophone tuition book is for those with music reading ability and for those without music reading ability. It is a real hybrid tuition book.As an intermediate player myself (alto), I noticed a few bad habits creeping into my playing and so wanted to go back to the beginning to correct them. For example, my embouchure, playing by ear, playing in a relaxed manner and tuning to name as a few points for improvement. And after one practise session only with this tuition book my technique improved noticeably and I’m now gaining a far better understanding of the above pointers and indeed the saxophone.The book does not come with a CD. Apparently, CDs are outdated these days. Not to worry though, the author (Mark Archer) has this covered and gives invitation to email him for a link to download prepared music files and information. More to the point, Mark was on holiday when I emailed and yet he still replied with the promise of sending me the link to download said files on his return. Sure enough, I received the link shortly afterwards and now have the necessary files.Blowout Sax is an impressive saxophone tuition book which is easy to read, it is written with a humorous tone and is not too wordy. It is helping me to improve my playing and I highly recommend it for both the beginner and intermediate saxophone player. I'm not advanced yet so watch this space, lol. I do not know Mark Archer or have any affiliation with Blowout Sax but this tuition book is a superb find and exactly to my needs. And cheers to all involved.

Great for beginners
Bought this book as I wanted to learn sax but couldn't afford lessons after they kept going up in price, easy to read, fun to learn gets you playing tunes you recognise straight away.
