a great investment on music
I play a lot of wedding and church events. These Kenny G books are perfect. You must have a proficient piano player and/or band. Most of the basic melodies of the majority of songs are fairly accessible to even average players. However, the 'improv' sections and runs are also scripted note for note. Those are definitely for advanced players. If you can't play them, skip them and play the easy parts. But work on them to make you a better player. These books are also helpful in teaching how to 'beautify' a song by adding turnarounds and other little tricks to make melodies sound better. Highly recommend. NOTE: no accompaniment trax CD is included so you either have a keyboard player or play along with the original Kenny G cd.

Beautiful Music
I am a Mature student and just love Kenny G's music. I started on alto about a year ago then moved to tenor, I play the soprano solo's on tenor, I'm also a tuba player in UK brass bands so I have a good background in music.

Best of the Best
This book is awesome, and "The Moment" the CD has very good songs in them such as "The Moment", "Havanna", "Moonlight", "Innocence", "Northern Nights", and many other ones. Even if you only like 4 or 5 songs, this book is worth it, $1.33 for the complete part of a certain song is the best deal you can ever get. Instead of spending tons of hours on google searching for free sheet music, while you might not be able to find anything of you might find ones that are wrong, you can just buy this. It is definitely worth it to spend $20 to buy the sheet music for 12 of the best romanic songs instead of blowing your time on the internet searching and begging for it while you might not get anything. So get this!

disappointed
I was looking forward to playing example 18 "Fore Ever In Love" on my alto, but as I played with the CD, it did'nt sound right. In this song the soprano sax starts in the key of D, and the alto in the key of A. The song sounded great as I played it without the CD, but I really wanted to play alone with the CD.

My Favorite Music from best saxophonist
This is my favorite music book, every note is as played on Kenny G's CD which I always play when I play on my soprano, alto or tenor saxophone, every song is a winner, but my favorite on this CD and music book is "Moonlight" as played on the alto sax, in my opinion, this is one of the best ballads Kenny G has ever played, and he has played dozens of excellent ballads, I can't say enough good things about this CD and music book, you just have to get it for yourself and play your heart out.
