Tenor saxophone method with gradual progression
Easy Steps 1 from De Haske Publications is a Dutch-language tutor for tenor saxophone, written for beginners who want to learn step by step. Its structure is deliberately gradual, so new notes, rhythms and musical concepts are introduced in small stages and can be absorbed properly.
The book has 64 pages and offers more than standard exercises. You also work with games, ensemble exercises, ear-training tasks and medleys of well-known songs, presented in a clear layout that gives extra support during lessons or practice at home.
Easy Steps 1 from De Haske Publications in teaching
This method is designed for practical use and works well in music lessons and group classes. The rich illustrations and clear explanations give young learners plenty of support, while still leaving room for a personal approach by teacher or student.
The included 2 audio CDs contain accompaniments for all exercises and pieces, often with a played example as well. The slow tempos make it easier to join in quickly, which is especially helpful in the first stage of learning the saxophone.
With DVD, piano parts and mp3 accompaniment
Easy Steps 1 tenor saxophone includes a DVD alongside the CDs and extra digital material. The DVD contains an instructional video demonstrating the first basics of playing the instrument; you can play it on a standard DVD player or on a computer.
Using a computer, you can print the piano parts for the medleys, so a separate piano book is not needed. It also includes eight trios with both score and individual parts ready to print. All accompaniment tracks are also available as mp3 files, making them easy to find and use on the go.
