Greg Fishman Greg Fishman: Jazz Saxophone Etudes. Book & CDs: Vol 3

Jazz Saxophone Etudes, Volume 3 features twelve melodic etudes for the advancing jazz saxophonist. These etudes focus primarily on medium tempos and demonstrate a melodic approach to soloing with authentic jazz vocabulary. The etudes are catchy, fun to play, and written idiomatically for the saxophone. Like all of Greg Fishman’s books, all saxophonists (soprano/alto/tenor/bari) read the same written part, ensuring that the pieces lay perfectly on the horn, while the rhythm section transposes the accompaniment to accommodate the saxophonist’s range. This book is the perfect follow-up for students who have completed Fishman’s Jazz Phrasing for Beginners. It’s also a great primer for Fishman’s more advanced books, Jazz Saxophone Etudes, Volumes 1 & 2.
