    Description

    Yuletide Improvisations is a very hip étude book—disguised as a collection of beloved holiday songs, each one creatively re-imagined and meticulously arranged.

    These delightfully musical little pieces seamlessly incorporate a whole host of techniques every contemporary saxophonist needs to address.

    Play them year after year at recitals, holiday concerts, church or synagogue services, family gatherings, and much more. And they’re playable by every type of saxophone (soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, etc…).

    Great shoes for a casual day at the office. I have to size a half size down for Cole Haan usually. Comfortable and looks great with any fit.

    Fit and comfort
    Size: 12, Color: Ch British Tan/Ivory
    These have to rate as equal to any shoes I've ever owned. I know everyone's foot is shaped differently but when I slipped my feet into these I was immediately sure I had made the correct choice. Sizing is true. You note, I'm sure, that these are slip-on shoes. My experience with slip-ons has been mixed as sometimes the heel tends to slip due to the maker leaving room for the slip-on function to take place. When I got these I discovered that the opening for my feet was so tight I needed to shoe-horn them in and it wasn't particularly easy. The heel counter was "high and tight" but once I got my feet in the shoes it was heaven. Then, after a couple of days wearing them I can now slip my feet into these slip-ons with ease and the shoes grip my feet like a lace-up shoe can do. I have one other pair of Cole Haans in the same size 12. They are also a wonderful fit for me. I highly recommend.
