Can I say what a fabulous course!. I have bought many things to help me learn the sax (I have no teacher where I live in North Wales in the UK) yours has been the most helpful. I am lucky in that I am already a musician and a teacher, so I kind of had natural talent for the sax but I needed some extra help and your books were exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! :)

Hi James, I started reading your book yesterday (saxophone in hand) I've only read, and practised for about 2 hours now, but I just wanted to let you know I love your writing style. Very open and personal, like your sitting right here in the room with me. Altijd is kortjakje ziek (whatever that title means) is comming along nicely! I can't believe I'm actually playing allready :D! Thank you!

Greats Z.B, New York.

Hi James, I'm actually a teacher. I bought you're book because I read something on a forum about your illustrations. I have to say I didn't expect this. I've been teaching saxhophone for more than five years now and I agree your ullistrations really are unique. I'm amazed why nobody ever thought to do the fingering charts the way you did. When I first looked at them I got really confused for a second, but then I looked again and everything fell into place. Simple yet brilliant!

(From saxontheweb.net) Incredibly intelligent bit of graphic design. we often think design's role is to please and entertain; we forget that its best purpose (at least in terms of 2d print) is to give meaning and to inform. this is very nicely done!

(From saxontheweb.net) Good work and very impressive graphics and layout

(about our charts) At first I looked at it and I couldn't wrap my head around it. I didn't even realize I was flipping anything around in my head before, years of explaining fingering charts to students I guess. Yours seemed very counter-intuitive to me. But after looking for a just a few seconds everything switched and I started to find it very natural. Good work!

Ben Bogart, Beaverton U.S.A. (Music teacher, Saxophonist)

(about our charts) My initial reaction was "this seems backwards to me..." But then I re-read Ben's comment and took another look at the chart. That second look made all the difference. It's not backwards at all...it's exactly right! We're used to seein a "mirror image," whereas your version is made as if the sax is right in front of us, facing the right direction. Very cool!

.....Thank you so much for this book! I justed wanted to try the saxophone for fun so I rented a sax and bought your book and as soon as I got started, I was hooked. This makes it so easy to get started. Thnx for helping me out with this!

(From saxontheweb.net) I wonder why no one came up with this before. Simple yet brilliant. I love ideas that are elegant in thier simplicity.

I'm about halfway through the book now. Great book James! I like how it's written in an open and personal style en I love the videos with the moving fingering positions inside the image. It makes everything real easy. I also like that your book makes me feel like I'm having private lessons. I think it's very interesting that you give real attention to mentality and practicing strategy's. I only have about half an hour every day to practice, but it's still very important to think about and realize that playing the saxophone needs to become part of my daily life and that it's going to take some effort to do so. I don't think I ever would have thought about it with that perspective if it wasn't for you book. So thanks! Now I'm going to continue practicing ;)

Kind regards, M,V,L The Netherlands
