The Real Easy Book: Tunes for Beginning Improvisers, Vol. 1 (Bb version)

The only fake book specifically designed for middle school or high school classroom use. New, Expanded, Three-Horn version now includes two harmony parts for each song, horn parts to play as background behind soloists, shout choruses, etc.

The Real Easy Book contains over 40 simple, but classic, jazz tunes by Miles, McCoy Tyner, Sonny Rollins, etc. Each song is on a left-hand page, and all the information that a band director would have to write out for his/her students is on the corresponding right-hand page - sample piano voicings, bass lines, guitar diagrams, scales for soloing, etc. Saves the teacher countless hours of prep work!
