hey brad,

a friend of mine who was a saxophonist a few years ago actually used vocal blues music and just played it on the sax. she did extension too, got a freakin' awesome mark. so if your looking for tenor sax repertoire and finding it hard, you can always revert to something written for a different instrument, transpose it and play it on the sax..?

there's no rule saying you have to play music strictly written for the tenor saxophone. so go wild!

yeh i agree
:jedi:
If you want something contrasting, look up the Real Books.
and find a nice ballad written for voice like "The Nearness of You", "Foolish Heart". ect.
they sound great, it gives a whole new aspect to your playing and markers LOVE!!! that shit. .
