Your First Fake Book



158 pages, Item number 1700605ED, $19.95

In using a fake book, musicians learn to "fake" an accompaniment to a melody, playing chords as indicated. This fake book is specially designed for players just acquiring this important musical skill. The melodies have been simplified, the number of chords needed has been reduced to a minimum, and rhythms have been reduced. All 100 songs are arranged in the Key of C and are printed in easy-to-read, large music notation. And, most importantly for the beginning user, the book includes a helpful introduction of how to use a fake book.
 
A fake book contains the melody line along with lyrics and chord symbols. It is ideal for a pianist that wants to 'fake' the left hand part (a fake book does not contain the left hand piano part - it has only the melody), or for anyone that plays a C instrument such as flute, violin, harmonica, or recorder.
