    Insightful Solo Lines for Jazz Analysis

    As a collaborative pianist, I typically look for accompaniment scores. This 'Tenor Saxophone' collection is purely solo, so it lacks piano texture for accompaniment or supporting a singer. However, the 'authentic, note-for-note transcriptions' are exceptional for analyzing Brecker's melodic 'voice-leading' and harmonic sophistication. A valuable resource for understanding the master's improvisation, even if not for direct collaborative performance.

    Finally Sound Like Michael Brecker!

    Learning to play Michael Brecker's music has been a blast with this 'Intermediate' tenor sax collection! It really helps me 'sound like the record' with its 'note-for-note transcriptions' of 19 incredible 'Jazz Fusion' tunes. It's challenging enough to keep me engaged, but absolutely achievable for a dedicated hobbyist. A truly enjoyable way to relax and dive into the master's work.

    Great for drum solos

    I'm using the book to develop new phrasing in my drum soloing and accompaniment. It's going great. Very modern compared to the Bird Book, etc, and MUCH MORE ACCURATE. I still find mistakes, but it's really close.
