15 easy pieces for alto sax and piano. Swing and thereabouts answers the needs of the young instrumentalist by providing: newly written music that is a delight to play and listen to; a wide range of genres: swing, habanera, mambo, cha-cha-cha, bossa nova, hully gully, dixieland and blues; audio tracks giving two different versions of the music: one with sax/clarinet, piano, bass and drums; the other with just the accompanying instruments; a complete piano score for live performance; the possibility of working with or without a teacher.
