Amazing Phrasing is for any sax player interested in learning how to improvise and how to improve their creative phrasing. The ideas are divided into three sections: Harmony (explores scales, arpeggios, chord substitutions, harmonic embellishments, and other harmonic phrasing ideas), Rhythm (covers legato tonguing, swing feel, rhythmic displacement, how to manipulate time, and other aspects of rhythmic phrasing), Melody (discusses contour lines, making patterns musical, developing a motif, building a solo, and many other melodic phrasing ideas). The companion CD contains demos for listening, as well as many play-along examples so you can practice improvising over various musical styles and progressions.

Great Book! Sep 05, 2007 Bought the book several months ago. I have continued to use it everyday in my practice sessions. It covers all the important areas that I'm working on. Even though I use it everyday, I am only half way through the exercises provided on each subject. Should challenge me for a long time to come.
CD included has a good rhythm section as well as a Sax part. You can take the Sax part out by using the Balance. I find this very useful in keeping my reading honest and allows me to work on my own tone.
