Universal Method for Saxophone by Paul DeVille
Anyone use this book?
A few crazy kids I know use it and refer to it as the Sax Bible
If you play from it, what exercises are your favorite?
I learned from it, ditched it for a few years, and uncovered it a few months ago. It was totally worth the outrageous price I paid for it at the time.

| AFIAK it's the only big, fat method book there is for saxophone. Haven't looked at it in a while, but I like triplet exercises and some of the solos at the end are okay. |

Greetings,
I really found myself enjoying German Air from the book.

This is a really great method book. I used it when I was in college and used it a lot with my good students. It is great for technic and sight reading. It covers exercise in all keys and levels of difficulty. excellent ++++++book _________________ Good to see so many young sax players on the forum. |
