I really enjoyed playing the songs from this book especially it allows me to practice without partner with the help of the CD. They are all new fresh songs written by Bruze Eskovitz and Ernie Watts. The CD covers all the songs in this book and helps you to hear how they play. To allow the CD accompany your part, you can mute the part that you want to play by sliding the balance slider to the left (mute second part) or to the right (mute first part) on your stereo.It's really great for intermediate level student, not recommended for beginner. If you love playing jazz, it will help you to master the improvisation and give the idea on applying the improvisation to any songs you play.I wish they sell the full band accompaniment CD or the piano accompaniment book.

Good intermediate level.Well written and playable. I use it with my private students.

This is one of my favorite saxophone duet books -- very creative, musical duets, presented in a wonderful, progressively challenging format. The CD is easy to use, and the tempos are not too fast. Lots of fun!

A friend and I use this book for sight reading jazz charts. They're fun to play. I don't remember if this is specified, but they're pretty tricky, starting from an early intermediate level going up to some pretty dicey stuff, but not so insane that you become overwhelmed when practicing or sight reading. Great book.

This is a great sax jazz duets book. The compositions are interesting and there are separate rhythm sections to study the phrasing. I am using this with a friend and it has been very helpful. A great learning resource!
