Hip Licks for Tenor Sax (V1)

Very intuitive! Are you a beginner to improvising ? Then this is a marvelous way to start. After learning a couple licks In every key you will be nailing the changes and sounding authentic to the tradition of Jazz.

I purchased this app as a beginning sax player and just love it! I feel like I may actually be able to play one day. I was having issues suddenly with the sound and sent Greg and email. He responded within minutes and had me back up and running. Turns out it was my mute button but Greg took the time to help me. Thanks Greg for a terrific product and for the great customer service! - John

First of all, Hip Licks is an excellent, well designed and implemented tool for becoming more proficient as a saxophonist. Greg Fishman is not only a wonderful musician, he is a great teacher, and Hip Licks is a good example of his thorough approach to teaching the language of the saxophone. This app contains the identical material as the original Hip Licks, and makes it even easier to use. I highly recommend Greg, his teaching materials, and his apps as being a fantastic way to learn, improve and/or maintain your skills. You won't be disappointed!

I have recently downloaded 2 apps for ipad ( Hip Licks Vol #1 for both tenor and alto sax). They are simply so easy to use. I use them not only for myself but in my teaching studio using 2 ipads and 2 Gig Easy Stands. I didn't need to use the foot pedals as the apps change pages already and without a glitch. Greg Fishman is so far ahead of the curve with this technology stuff as well as the saxophone and jazz education in general. I highly advise the use of all his materials. Jimmy Las Vegas

This app is extremely well thought out and easy to use. I actually prefer it to the CD/Book version because of the ability to switch between tempos and accompaniment styles with a single touch. It's obvious that ease of use was of utmost importance because the controls are clean and simple to use. Of course, the content is amazing as well. Thanks for blazing this trail, and bringing your high quality jazz method into the digital age for all of us to enjoy.

If you have been transferring PDF's to your iPad, as I have (using "forScore"), and using your iPad for just about everything, then you will love this app. The Hip Licks app is very intuitive and fun to use with my private students. I am able to mirror my ipad using AppleTV and project the music on a big screen. My students really enjoy this feature. You could also use this app in an improvisation class or jazz ensemble and project this on a Smartboard. Having the app will enable you to listen to the music when you are unable to practice. I find this to be a very useful feature. Read the description of the app. It gives you all the info you need. The book and the app are the same but the convenience, look and usefulness of the app makes it a must have. I highly recommend this as well as Greg's other apps and books.

I have all of Greg's books, and have used them for some time now. The app is a copy of the book, but lets me easily take the exercises on the road, or call them up at home really easily. Works well with my Apple iTV... Can send it to my sound system via iTV very easily. Looking forward to the release of the other volumes too!
