For those wishing to learn to play the saxophone, this tutor-book should be a great help. You will find in it general information about the instrument, the basic principles of music as well as a considerable number of exercises enabling you to master the playing technique in a systematic way. But you will not acquire the included material at once and without effort. You have to read the explanations carefully, comply strictly with the directions and suggestions as well as practise systematically and in a sensible way. You will be able to make progress only if you overcome the difficulties and persevere in repeated attempts to overcome new problems. Remember that if you fail to achieve your goal at the first attempt, you will do so more easily next time, whereas - if you become discouraged - you will lose what you have already gained and you will deprive yourself of the feeling of satisfaction known by everybody who has achieved his aim. So persevere and you will succeed! While learning to play the saxophone - just as in the case of every wind instrument - it is extremely important to achieve a pleasing, pure tone connected with skilfull breath control. Pay careful attention to this skill. When you practise, do not rely only on the material in this tutor-book, but also use studies which will enable you to attain a higher technical level. ''Jazz Study for Saxophone'' published by PWM Edition is a continuation and supplement to this tutor-book. [Tadeusz Hejda]
