The UNCW Saxophone Studio
Welcome to the UNC Wilmington Saxophone Studio informational link! This link is designed to provide UNCW saxophone students, as well as prospective students, helpful information regarding saxophone study at UNCW. The links below may be viewed online, or downloaded and printed as a pdf file where indicated.
The primary goal of the UNCW saxophone studio is the study of saxophone fundamentals to develop skills, musicianship, and pedagogical concepts necessary for establishing a strong foundation in understanding and mastering the saxophone mechanics used in making music.
This goal is achieved through the study and performance of various materials, based on the student’s curriculum, as outlined in the Saxophone Repertoire list, with a strong focus on the musical aspects of technique, articulation, tone development, air stream control, musical interpretation, and extended techniques, among others.
