Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this include the piano part?
This is the alto sax solo book. Rubank collections publish the piano accompaniment as a separate edition.

An access code printed in the book unlocks streaming and download through Hal Leonard's online audio player.
03What skill level is this?
Intermediate through advanced. You should be comfortable across the horn's range and reading in several keys.

No. It is written for Eb alto. A tenor player would be transposing on sight throughout.
