This book is really good if you want to master scale passages. I on the other hand, I really don't care for scale music like this. Very challenging!

The daily exercises used by Charlie Parker. What more could a sax player want? Scholars have traced their influence in his recordings....
Great Saxophone Workout 2008-03-18
When it comes to playing any musical instrument, gaining mastery over the fundamentals of how to play said instrument forms the base of a musicians training. Yes, a large part is also sheer creativity, but being skilled in creating what you want, and how you want it, is first and foremost to being able to create music.
That being said, the etudes enclosed in this book will work the full range of skills necessary to effectively play the saxophone. Range, articulation, accidentals, endurance, breathing, and phrasing are all worked in each exercise.
If each etude is worked through methodically, starting out slowly and working towards full tempo, all of your playing skills should see improvement.
I pair this with Jackie McClean's "Daily Warm-Up Exercises for Saxophone" to start each practice session, allowing me to drill the full range of scales, chords, and overall technique.
good for more advanced player

This book was a bit too challenging for me and seemed to be mostly scales. I prefer jazz songs etc... so maybe it was just a poor choice for me.
Bird studied Klose 2007-07-21
They say phrases from some of these Klose etudes found their way into Charlie Parker's musical vocabulary. When asked by Paul Desmond, Bird replied "It's not smoke and mirrors, some of it comes from books."

great book, glad my teacher recommended it. Recomend it for experienced high school player or college student. Might be a little hard for a middle schooler

These etudes are great for developing the saxophonist's technical ability. Accessible for junior high and high school players.
