Horn Section Workout for Saxophone

Learn 5 ESSENTIAL HORN SECTION STYLES, and develop AWESOME SKILLS on sax!

 

Do you love great horn sections like Wilson Pickett, Tower of Power and James Brown?

All these bands have amazing horn sections - and this music is some of the most fun you can play on your sax. And, playing horn section music is one of the best ways to really improve your skills like:

  • Rhythm and time keeping
  • Tuning and intonation 
  • Ability to read rhythms quickly
  • Understanding different styles.

 

The problem is, most of us don't get to play this music...

I know first hand how good playing horn section music is for your playing , and I want you to have the skills you need to do it right. 

So I created Horn Section Workout.

What's inside?

Horn Section Workout is a full course of 40+ video lessons that guide you step by step through what you need to know.  Plus you'll learn a bunch of great tunes and get the horn charts and backing tracks that you can use to re create the horn section sound in a range of key styles.

 

Skills:

First you will learn the key skills you need to really master horn section playing. And this is really important so that you can make the most of every tune you learn. 

Styles:

Then you will learn a range of awesome original tunes written in the key horn section styles you need to know as a sax player.

You'll learn music in the style of:

  • Soul / Motown bands like Wilson Pickett
  • 70s funk like James Brown
  • Awesome 16th rhythm funk like Tower of Power
  • Acid Jazz style like Dap Kings or Incognito
  • And Contemporary Horn Band style of Bruno Mars.

What you get:

Horn Section Workout contains over 40 step-by-step videos.

Each tune you learn is scored for 3 horn parts and you will learn the top part in easy steps throughout the video series.

Plus, you get the full horn arrangements for either Alto or Tenor sax.

Also you will get a full set of backing tracks for each tune that you can use to practice, learn and perform.

 

Why is this important to me?

There is no doubt that horn section music is so much fun to play, but did you know just how good it is for your rhythm and feel?

As you work thorugh this course, you will really begin to understand how to read rhythms better, and develop your sense of time and feel.

"Nigel has put A LOT of work into this course. Even at the full price I think its a bargain. The amount of supporting documentation, backing tracks and full track examples is amazing and had to be extremely time consuming to pull together. This is better prepared and laid out than just about any university level music course I have taken - Great job Nigel."
