Sax & Brass Book – Saxophones, Trumpets, & Trombones In Jazz, Rock, & Pop
Book (Item 611570) Backbeat Books, 1998 — Condition: New Copy
Kind of a wide topic in the title, but the book more than lives up to it through a playful pastiche of photos, images, and historical details – laid out with a good timeline of the use of the saxophone, trumpet, and trombone in American music! The project definitely has a musician's eye (and ear), and helps us bring together use of the instruments from a different perspective than we might have as isolated listeners – a fresh perspective we really appreciate, and one that hits home at the end, where the book features a very detailed index of instrument makers, models, and even serial numbers! 120 pages, softcover, with lots of color images. © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | |||||
