Description

Jazz Saxophone Etudes for Alto Saxophone, Volume 1 features twelve melodic etudes for the advancing jazz saxophonist. These etudes feature a wide variety of tempos, ranging from a ballad (66 BPM) through medium swing tempos (126 - 168 BPM), all the way up to fast bebop tempos ( from 184 BPM through 264 BPM). Each etude demonstrates a melodic approach to soloing with authentic jazz vocabulary. The etudes are catchy, fun to play, and written idiomatically for the saxophone.

The etudes are based on familiar chord progressions, including the blues, rhythm changes, and a variety of common “standard” 32-bar songs.

Custom User Interface

This application features a customized user interface that makes this application fun and easy to use. When you launch the application, you’ll see a menu window that lets you choose to read through the entire contents of Jazz Saxophone Etudes, page by page without the play-along tracks. All page turns are automatic, and synchronized with the play-along track.

To start playing a sax demo track, simply click on the saxophone icon on the lower left side of the display, and the track will immediately begin to play.

To start playing a rhythm-section-only track, simply click on the drum icon on the lower right side of the display, and the track will immediately begin to play.

What’s New

Version 1.5

Re-adds the original rhythm section tracks, giving the user the opportunity to hear the rhythm section play something different in every chorus, instead of just looping the first chorus of the rhythm section only track.

Life Changing!

Greg’s Hip Licks app is a must buy for every saxophonist wanting to improve their jazz playing and vocabulary. I play along with this app multiple times a day and have found an endless amount of practice options.

This app has so many features it’s hard to believe how low the cost is. I can loop any specific lick I’m working on, slow down and speed up the tempo or just play through all of the licks from that specific section. I can also choose whether I want to play with just the rhythm section, trade with Greg or play unison with him the entire time.

Currently, my favorite way to practice with this app is setting the backing to trading with Greg. I play the original lick with Greg and then improvise my own lick. I have never felt this confident improvising.

I love having a digital copy of Greg’s Hip Licks right on my phone and iPad. I have never had this much fun practicing! Greg Fishman’s Hip Licks has all of the answers you’ve been looking for!
