10 G major

Now, we'll move on to G major concert. It corresponds to E/A major on the alto/tenor saxophones. Notes: * We've dropped the alto saxophone part one octave to avoid going above high F (the higher notes will come later during altissimo exercises). * We've raised the first note (A) played by the tenor saxophone by one octave since the lowest playable note is low B♭. Step 1: Listen to the exercise.
