Three-Horn Edition of The Real Easy Book, Vol. 1 Released!

Never let it be said that we don’t value feedback from people who use our books.

At the Jazz Education Network conference last year, several band directors told us that it would be great to have a version of "The Real Easy Book, Vol. 1" (our most popular fake book) with harmony parts added, instead of just a melody and chord symbols.

Voila! As of January 1st, the new three-horn, expanded edition has replaced the original version.

Included in this three-horn edition are:

Separate pages for each harmony part for every song
Background horn lines underneath soloists
Often “shout choruses” at the end of solos
Background lines and shout choruses include parts for the melody player too

These beautiful arrangements by pianist/arranger Larry Dunlap create a fuller, more professional sound, yet each part is simple enough for beginning improvisers to play, and each part could be played by a number of different instruments.

The book is now 172 pages, is available in C, Bb, Eb and Bass Clef, and lists for $28.
