Essential elements
I didn't buy this book from Amazon but this is the book I learned to play the tenor saxophone from when I was in Middle School, it is very helpful, it shows you where to put your fingers and but keys are down for which notes. The CD is helpful too because it lets he hear how it is actually supposed to sound. I only gave it 4 stars because it doesn't teach you how to hold your mouth on the mouth piece, your embouchure, but I don't hold that against the book because the embouchure is hard to get and I had to have my band director teach it to me over and over again. But this book is great for a beginner and they also have a book two after you get through this one so check it out!
