The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Alto saxophone edition
Written in the alto's E-flat transposition. Fingerings and range do not carry over to tenor or bari.
Detail 03
Student Instrumental Course series
Part of a graded sequence, so the next book continues the same order and pacing.
Detail 04
Method book
Sequenced exercises and studies rather than a song collection. Progress is meant to be linear.

Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Is this for beginners?
No. Level II picks up after the first book. A true beginner should start with Level I of the same series.
02Will this work for tenor sax?
No. This is the alto edition. Tenor is a different transposition and needs the tenor version of the book.
03Does it come with a CD or audio?
This is the book. Any audio or accompaniment is a separate purchase.
04Does it match what my school band uses?
Check with the director. Alfred's Student Instrumental Course is a common band-room sequence, but programs vary.
