Strong match

Who this is for

  • Alto sax players running scales with the rest of the band
  • Structured daily warm-ups before rehearsal or practice
  • Section leaders who need the 1st part specifically

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Tenor or bari sax players — those are separate B-flat and E-flat books
  • Anyone on the 2nd alto part
  • Players looking for songs, solos, or etudes

What matters in use

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 01

1st E-flat alto saxophone part

The first-chair line. A second alto player needs the 2nd part book to avoid doubling the same notes.

Detail 02

E-flat transposition

Written a major sixth above concert pitch, so it aligns with the band instead of piano or concert-pitch parts.

Detail 03

Scored for band and orchestra

Every instrument's edition is matched, letting the full group run the same scale in unison.

Detail 04

Scales-only content

Technique and warm-up material. It won't replace a method book or a repertoire folder.

Detail 05

Under $6 per part

Low enough to buy a copy for every chair rather than photocopying.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Alto, tenor, and bari each need their own edition — check the horn on the cover
  2. 02Order the correct part number if your section splits 1st and 2nd
  3. 03One book per player; it's a single part, not a section score

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can I use this on tenor sax?

No. Tenor is a B-flat horn and reads a different transposition. Order the tenor saxophone edition.

02Is this the same book the clarinets get?

Same title and series, different edition. Each instrument has its own transposed part book.

03Does it include a piano accompaniment?

No. It's the alto saxophone part only, meant to be played with the ensemble.

04Which part should a second alto player buy?

The 2nd E-flat alto saxophone book. This edition covers the 1st part line.
