    Nathan, you created a great teaching tool that I'm going to try with one of my advanced students. Curious that the download didn't use the same music font as you show in the video. Any reason why you didn't imbed the fonts in the PDF?

    Yeah ik what you mean but keep in mind that this isn’t his channel. He had to be more professional in this video and it was still easy to follow along regardless.

    I like this, it's getting into the mind of Charlie Parker, Sonny Stitt, and all the other great improvising saxophonists. I'm glad I bought the 25 Melodic Etudes. Thank, Nathan.

    Hey Nathan, I´m interested in buying the book. However, I don't know how to change the currency from dollars to euros on the checkout page. In the home page I can change it but when I get to the checkout page it automatically turns to USD again. I would be very glad to learn how to change it to EU.

    Everybody has their own five choices. I lead jam sessions and agree with three. I am also a Berklee grad and former college music prof. I would suggest replacing Blues for Alice with Green Dolphin St, and Giant Steps with My Funny Valentine or another quality ballad, the reasoning being to reach players of most levels.

    is the sheet music in this video transposed for bflat or eflat? (or not at all?) I'm a guitarist learning bflat soprano clarinet

    Very interesting. Thanks! However, I'm not sure about Stella being included in the list of 5 standards that we must know. It's a harmonically complicated piece. Also, in the Stella etude at bar 17, I find the note choices confusing. There is no Cb in a G7+ chord. It's a B natural. Likewise there is no Eb(b13). It should be a D#(#5). These distinctions are important, especially for less experienced players.

    @gregkingston4913 Yes, but also no at the same time to that question perhaps... Heres why. These solos he wrote them himself likely. (Id bet money personally he WROTE everything we are hearing himself.) Given that he is an Alto sax player himself, he may or could have originally written out these solos himself in the past and then transposed them to C. Or he could have done the reverse and just wrote a solo out in C and just transcribed them through a program or by hand. Which he likely knows how to do anyway. Most at his level would. Anyway, he's likely reading the e-flat verison. Or not. He could've memorized them himself and is playing them from memory. Who knows. Overall, the point is... He's just showing us the music in C. Theres probably several reasons for that, too, but you get the point by now if you've read this far. He transposed it sometime in the past. Thats my guess, but hes likely not transposing in the video on the fly in vid. Not saying he cant but...idk why you would choose to do that? I guess for fun lol.😅
