Mastering scales is essential to developing a strong technique on the saxophone. The exercises in this video run through the full range F# Major scale in different rhythms - quarter, eighth, and 16th notes (crotchets, quavers, and semi-quavers). There are also exercises that break the scale into smaller chunks. These exercises are great for finding and isolating any problem spots in the scale. The examples in this video are played at 60bpm but are meant to be worked on through a range of tempos - 60-160bpm.

The PDF also includes these same exercises with high F# added. If you have the high F# key or can play the high F# with the front/fork fingering, definitely include it in your scale practice.
