80 Graded Studies for Saxophone - Book One

80 Graded Studies for Saxophone is a comprehensive educational music collection selected and edited by John Davies and Paul Harris. Designed for both alto and tenor saxophone, these studies help players develop essential technique, musical expression and confidence through a wide variety of styles.

The collection brings together studies by notable composers and instrumental educators, including Arban, Baermann, Blatt and Brod, alongside specially composed studies by Paul Harris that introduce elements of 20th-century musical style.

The studies are arranged in a carefully planned progression of increasing difficulty, helping students build their skills step by step. They provide valuable practice in a musical context and are an excellent resource for private lessons, independent practice and instrumental exam preparation.

Published in two books, the series supports saxophonists from elementary level through to advanced study, making it a useful addition to the library of any saxophone student or teacher.
