Ray Smith 
The Science and Art of Saxophone Teaching 
The Essential Saxophone Resource

The Science and Art of Saxophone Teaching will become a standard resource for saxophone teachers the world over. Perhaps no other book has brought so many practical ideas and approaches for the saxophonist and the pedagogue under one cover. This book can be equally valuable for the serious intermediate to advanced saxophone student. The video demonstrations that are paired with the book will be invaluable to all saxophonists.
