In its comparatively short life of 150 years, the saxophone has been more reviled and misunderstood, yet, on the other hand, more admired and exploited than any other wind instrument. Paul Harvey's book cuts through all the myths and confusion to reveal the essential facts about this amazingly versatile instrument. Paul Harvey has drawn on forty-five years experience as a professional player in all fields of music, a teacher at all levels, a prolific composer and arranger of saxophone music, and an author of countless articles in magazines devoted to wind instruments. - Back cover.
