The collection 80 Graded Studies for Saxophone, selected and edited by John Davies and Paul Harris for alto and tenor saxophones, includes two volumes with an extensive selection of repertoire from the 18th and 19th centuries, featuring études by Arban, Baermann, Blatt, Brod, and others. It also includes some études specifically composed by Paul Harris, which introduce aspects of 20th-century style and significantly expand the content of the collection. The études are organized in increasing order of difficulty, following a carefully designed technical progression.

Volume One of the 80 Graded Studies for Saxophone collection is structured with ascending difficulty from beginner level to early intermediate (Grades 1-5).

Études are a fundamental part of every musician's training. They place technical challenges within musical contexts and can be valuable tools for development. The 80 Graded Studies for Saxophone series is an essential resource for all students and teachers, with both volumes being significantly included in the syllabuses of major examination boards.
