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.

    Gig-Ready Celtic Repertoire

    This fake book is a gigging musician's dream for Celtic events. With over 400 tunes and explicit chord symbols, I can tackle almost any request quickly. The easy-medium difficulty means minimal prep time. While its 256 pages mean strategizing page turns, the sheer breadth of standard repertoire makes it an indispensable tool for spontaneous requests or expanding my setlist efficiently.

    I absolutely adore this Celtic Fake Book! Diving into traditional Irish, Scottish, and Welsh tunes is so enjoyable and relaxing. The 'beginning to intermediate' level is perfect for a weekend player like me, making all these beautiful melodies achievable without feeling overwhelmed. The huge collection, featuring beloved songs like 'Danny Boy' and 'Molly Malone,' plus Gaelic lyrics, brings such a vibrant cultural experience to my piano playing.
