Insightful Melodic Study for Alto Sax
While this is an Alto Saxophone solo collection, the arrangements effectively capture Billy Joel's iconic vocal melodies. As a musician knowledgeable in voice-leading, I appreciate how this intermediate book provides a strong melodic basis for understanding phrasing and articulation on the sax. The solo texture ensures a faithful rendition of these pop and soft rock classics, offering a clear melodic line for performance or in-depth instrumental study.

Excellent Collection for Intermediate Sax Students
This Billy Joel collection from Hal Leonard is a fantastic resource for intermediate alto sax students. The intermediate difficulty level makes these familiar pop and soft rock tunes accessible while still offering musical challenges. The clear engraving typical of Hal Leonard supports good reading habits. It's an engaging way to motivate students and develop their melodic phrasing and rhythmic accuracy, perfect for 'School and Community' use.

Solid Solo Book for Pop Gigs
For a gigging alto saxophonist, this Billy Joel 'Biggest Hits' collection is a solid pick. It features all the recognizable pop and soft rock tunes often requested, like 'Piano Man' and 'Just The Way You Are.' As a solo alto sax arrangement, it's straightforward to read and interpret on the fly. The 32 pages cover a great selection, making it a reliable book to have ready for any pop-oriented event or request.

Not the best
As many people have pointed out, the songs in this book are badly transcribed. I would say thay you could transpose them yourself but that shouldn't be the job of the customer. Overall not a great purchase
