The Easiest Way to Bring Latin Music Into Your Band Room
Afro-Cuban classics, Brazilian Music and Latin Jazz tunes, designed for classroom or professional use. Most tunes have never been in print before!
The Real Easy Book format consists of a song on the left-hand page, and then all the things a band director would need to write out for their students on the facing right-hand page, including: scales for soloing, sample bass parts, sample guitar and piano voicings, etc.
This fourth volume of the Real Easy Book series allows you to play some of the greatest Latin music ever recorded, and yet all the individual parts are simple enough for relative beginners to play (in Part 1).
Two books in one!
Part I - Easier tunes, for high school (or even middle school) ensembles.
Part II - More challenging tunes, for advanced students and professional use. When needed, there are separate rhythm section charts &/or horn harmony charts to help your band play authentic-sounding versions of the tunes.
In addition, the Rhythm Section Appendix gives the student a complete overview of all the major Afro-Cuban and Brazilian rhythmic styles, and sample parts for each player. So no prior experience with Latin music is necessary to start having fun!
Expand your band's repertoire with the vibrant, upbeat sounds of LATIN MUSIC!
