Reviews'At the last count there are about 150 sax tutor books out there, so why bother with this one? Because it teaches a lot about the saxophone and music in a fun, well-paced and modern manner. The book gets you up and playing but is mindful of important things needed to make a good sound on sax. The accompanying CD is brilliant - 15 cool tunes - in a variety of styles (you're playing rock from track one) ... Another great feature is that improvisation skills are developed, with heaps of help given by the authors ... It is ideal for a sax teacher as well, because it's all there and both children and adult pupils wanting to learn will get into it ... Highly recommended.' Jazzwise online store Summer 05 'If I could give awards for sheer value it would have to go to Creative Saxophone ... with a 72-page book and play-along CD, the book is a real bargain.' Gerard McChrystal, Music Teacher, July 04
