2Not for a saxophone beginner, but a jazz improvisor  Apr 30, 2011 By Lorentz Yeung "Not to know what happened before you were born is to remain forever a child."
This video is not for a saxophone beginner. I would rather say, this video is for a beginning improviser who wants to develop or learn to make his music more jazz, or the most important thing --- to play Faster!

Yes, the instructor has a good tone, and a good embouchure, and ofcourse he is good at everything as a teacher in Berklee. But in this video, he doesn't tell any secret of playing fast, but an open secret --- practice. Actually, he doesn't talk much in the video. I think over 80% of the video is his demonstration over the exercises from the book given. Yes, i like his demos, because at least i know how does he start a phrase, end a phrase, and all that jazz. But the 1st phrase of each exercise is good enough. He tries to show each phrase in ALL KEYS throughout ALL the exercises! I appreciate his effort, but that's too much, sorry.

1Avoid, save your money  Jan 11, 2009 By Norman Holmes Jr.
I am still trying to understand this video. Just watching Jim Odgren play notes does not advance ones learning. This DVD is not for a beginner. No emphases on embouchure is included. Save your money.
