hi everyone,

could you suggest the name of some relevant "alto saxophonists" (except for the legends, like Bird!) whose solos I could transcribe?

thanks

Art Pepper, if you can do it. He is one of the most difficult to transcribe because of his electrifying phrases, full of irregular groupings. If you try, let me know how it went!

I forgot, I transcribed a theme by Art Pepper some time ago. But the solo, I'd better stay away from that! Even if the piece is slow, it's not one of the most difficult.

Great Art Pepper, or even Phil Woods.
