About Hal Leonard Fake Books

A "fake book" contains songs written in a concise format that includes only the melody and chords, letting you interpret the song's performance as you feel is appropriate. This is great for quickly learning songs by yourself or with an ensemble.

Each song in a fake book only has a single melody actually written out in notes, which is usually the vocal or lead melody. This melody will have the lyrics written beneath the notes, with each word aligned to its corresponding note. Above the notes of the melody will appear the names of the appropriate chords to play - for example, a "C minor" chord would be written as "Cmin" or Cm", rather than writing out all of the notes in those chords as they appeared in the original version of the song.

This format is very compact, which is why you will often see fakebooks containing 500 or more songs.

        Must for Fake Book users

        This s a great addition for users performing for the senior crowd who enjoy music from early 1900 thru the 50's. It's quite complete, easy to read(good print) and the spiral binder is a plus. A good cross section of early standards, light classics, marches and even unknown works you...

        More of a memory recall book for baby boomers.

        This book contains all those songs you learned as a kid including xmas carols. It has a lot of songs, but has the same melody for several songs as people learned them with different words - instead of having 'variations' on one song. It is the most common songs, not...

        C instruments is the operative word in this title.

        I like many of the selections, but am not accomplished enough to play many as yet. Pieces are written in many different key signatures, so do not read this as a strictly key of C offering.

        That is one reason why I got it. However, I have to 8va (up an octive) the majority of music.(What's new?!) Some of the notes are so low they are in the Alto Clef range of the Viola. If you haven't had any piano and play the flute you won't...
