Book for all Saxophonists

This book describes the physiology of sound production and the mechanics involved. The emphasis is upon freeing up the involved muscles and parts of the body so that they can operate in a natural instinctive manner. With these difficulties alleviated, the aspiring saxophonist has the opportunity to find his/her own inner voice. Including diagrams and exercises, this material represents Lieb’s personal interpretation of the studies he did with master teacher Joe Allard.

“This book would be an important and valuable addition to any teacher’s library.”

For All Musicians and Jazz Listeners

This book focuses on the process of being a jazz artist. Written from the creator’s perspective, the book covers subjects that jazz musicians frequently discuss amongst themselves including creating the music as well as insightful observations on the jazz scene itself. Liebman meticulously discusses soloing, the role of the sideman, the recording studio, leading a group, practicing, as well as other related topics.

In this one-of-a-kind highly-acclaimed and popular digital learning program, three of the world’s foremost jazz musicians share their most powerful “insider” secrets on what it is they did to achieve mastery in the art of jazz. Jazz giants, David Liebman, Bob Mintzer, and Bob Sheppard share results-producing techniques and concepts, which, if put to practice, will undoubtedly result in massive strides in areas such as creating compelling melodies, super-charging your ears, using advanced harmony to get that hip, “post-Coltrane” sound, using articulation and phrasing to come up with your own style, and many, many other exciting areas of jazz musicianship. Come see why this program has ignited a spark within so many jazz musicians at all levels, from beginners to seasoned pros.
