erm good question!!!!
For piano, from list B, the Mozart Allegro Moderato, and from List C, Debussy's first arabesque. Haven't decided on a list A piece yet!!!
For sax, probably, 3rd Mvt from the Lunde Sonata, the Thomys Minatures, and Scherzando Sax from 60 for sax.

Lunde is nice, I don't know the Minatures, and I avoid that study like the plague, but that is just me .

Hehe, I must admit I haven't looked at it in a while. I'll check later. I prefer James Rae. As long as you keep away from Ferling and Ian Wilson you'll be fine .

Some of the kids I teach have the James Rae book, but I wanted to get 60 for sax as I'd not seen the book before, and I love 50 for flute. 60 for sax is going to be my new study book now I think for new starters!!! One book that costs £6.99 takes you from grade 1-8!!! BARGAIN!!!!! What's even better is that I'm eating crumpets

Yeah, I haven't looked much at Sixty for Sax, but it is good that it can be used right the way through. It's interesting that they don't use 80 graded studies book 2 at all for sax.
