Christmas Jazz Volume 1 for Alto Saxophone and PianoIncludes Online Audio
From the Publisher
A delightful Jazz-inspired collection for Eb Saxophone and Piano with demo/backing tracks (via included audio CD), by Chris Lawry and Keri Degg. Christmas Jazz Volume 1 consists of five festive arrangements including smoochy ballads (Silent Night, and The First Nowell (Noel), but also tunes with serious groove factor (God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen is one of these), plus I Saw Three Ships (Mariah Carey-style complete with sleigh bells!), and Hark The Herald (in 5/4 time). A set of demonstration (sax with backing), and backing tracks are accessible via the included audio download code (with added backing instruments, not just piano). As well as featuring the original tune, each piece has an element of written out accessible original sax solo; enabling you to sound like a pro (but with no improvisation. required!). The pieces are not too advanced, and players of intermediate ability will be able to play all without any difficulty. Some, (The First Nowell, and Silent Night for instance) are even more accessible; around grade 3-4.
