It is impossible to imagine soul music without the saxophone. Its versatility is demonstrated by its ability to evoke a whole range of emotions. Whether melancholic, happy or dreamy, the saxophone manages to penetrate deep into the soul and make listeners and players feel the story it wants through the music.
Soul Classics contains the sheet music for 14 songs of passionate soul. The soulful and energetic melodies by James Brown, Ray Charles and many others are arranged for alto saxophone in an easy to medium difficulty and are also suitable for beginners. This edition gives the players the opportunity to tell the great soul hits themselves through their instrument and to inspire with it. The songs were recorded by Dirko Juchem, saxophonist, jazz flautist and author of numerous teaching and playing books, himself as demo and play-back versions and are available for download via code.
