Review Quotes: "This is the first significant addition to saxophone discography since (1986)....The compiler has facilitated access by arranging his entries in several sequences: first by composer, next by performer, then by label (with solo recordings differentiated from ensemble). Albums, compact discs, and commercial audio recordings of classical saxophone music are included. The volume concludes with a list of record companies....The book's publication will be welcomed by all those interested in saxophone recital and concert music."-American Reference Books Annual
