Celebrating the Saxophone

A beautifully presented book. As the operator of a small vintage saxophone website, I really appreciate the information given. This book is primarily a history from the player's perspective, but it also has some info about the design and manufacture of the horn.Few technical or historical errors that I saw. I've seen that he's really tried to research his material -- he was a regular on a few vintage sax discussion boards.I wish the book were longer and had more information on the horns themselves!

A delightful and fun overview of the history of the saxophone in music, with some wonderful photos. It's not an indepth study - which is part of it's beauty. Anyone can pick it up, open to any page, and enjoy a morsel of saxophone history. The pictures alone are almost worth the price of the book. Enjoy it.

Paul Lindemeyer, himself a superb alto and tenor saxophonist, has put together a beautiful coffee-table book which is full of saxophone history and lore. I recommend this book for the most seasoned pro or the enthusiastic beginner. No one who plays the instrument or cares for it should be without a copy.
