5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT!, January 24, 2005

Lincoln F. Da Silva - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Ultimate Beginner Series, Alto Saxophone (DVD)

If you are looking for a beginners guide on the Saxophone, then this is the right book for you. It has very detailed information from assembling the instrument, cleaning, maintenance, and playing techniques. Excellent DVD! Highly recommended. The only problem is that it's only one hour long. :) If I find a second volume I'll buy it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Learn 8 notes!, January 14, 2009

RSB - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Ultimate Beginner Series, Alto Saxophone (DVD)

I was shocked to see so many positive reviews. This is a 40 min dvd that tells you how to take the instrument out of the case and play 8 notes. That's it! This same lesson could have been 10 min. Oh, I forgot, it also tells you how to put the instrument back into the case... what a waste of money.

I can only assume that the publisher or author faked the other reviews.

I would recommend the book "Absolute Beginners Alto Saxophone" which comes with a CD over this DVD any day.

Thinking IsGood 4U "Cheers!" (California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ultimate Beginner Series, Alto Saxophone (DVD)

This is incredible, I can't believe anyone would sell a garbage like that that shows how to take an instrument out of the box and put it back with some minimal (4 or so notes) instruction on actual playing the sax.

I'm returning it, thanks

For a beginner this is a great DVD. It covers all aspects of saxophone playing for the beginning student. This includes the reference materials that a student can print out.
