Teal's studies were mostly of instruments other than the saxophone, but as a student at a Chautauqua summer session, he came under the influence of Georges Barrre, the eminent French flutist. He played bass clarinet with the Detroit Symphony, but he continued to be absorbed by the saxophone. As a result of his acquired expertise and growing reputation, he was appointed to a full-time faculty position as a saxophone teacher by the University of Michigan -- the first ever to receive such an appointment from a major university. During his 21-year tenure, he attracted students from all over, thus exerting an ever widening influence on saxophone teaching and performing.

GREAT book for my high school student who will be following a music career as a professor of music in college and obtaining his doctorate of saxophone! Highly recommended!

classic worth having
This book has been around since 1963. It is still just as pertinent now as it was then. As a sax player of 40 years, I bought it as a reference. If you are learning sax or are a seasoned vet, this book is a good read.
