KJOSStandard Of Excellence Book 2 Alto Sax
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Second-year alto sax part for the Standard of Excellence band method. Buy it if the director assigned Book 2 and you play alto.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Second-year alto sax students continuing in school band
- Replacing a damaged Book 2 alto part during the school year
- Home practice that stays in step with class assignments
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- First-year players — Book 1 comes first
- Tenor or bari sax players; those are separate part books
- Anyone wanting jazz etudes or solo repertoire
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 02
Book 2
Second year of the sequence. Starts past the fundamentals Book 1 establishes.
Detail 03
One part per player
Band methods are sold per instrument, so a household with two players needs two books.
Detail 04
Under ten dollars
Cheap enough to keep a spare, which matters since these get lost and written in.
Detail 05
Softcover, band-folder size
Meant to be carried daily. Expect wear at the spine and corners over a year.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Check the exact edition with the director — parts from different editions don't share page numbers
- 02No reeds, neck strap, or care kit included
- 03Students write in it, so used copies are usually marked up
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Which book do I need for first year?
Book 1 for alto sax. This is the Book 2 part, meant for the second year.
02Can a tenor sax player use this?
No. Alto and tenor are different transpositions with their own part books in the series.
03Is this the teacher's book?
No. This is the student part for alto sax, not a conductor or teacher edition.
04Does the class need everyone on the same book?
Yes — same series and edition, but each player uses the part book for their own instrument.
