0How To Play From A Fake Book
With A Bonus Section Of Over 100 Songs
By Michael Esterowitz
0 For years,
fake books have been used by professional musicians at
cocktail lounges, weddings, or practically and performing
situation. These books are invaluable because they contain a
thousand or more songs in one compact volume. But in order
to use them one must know how to look at a kind of musical
shorthand - a skeleton of each song which gives only melody,
lyrics and chord symbols - and 'fake' a full accompaniment.
NOW, ANYONE CAN!
How To Play
From A Fake Book will teach you how to play any chord symbol
you will find in pop, jazz or rock ... how to create stylish
arrangements on your own ... how to sound like a 'pro' even
when reading sheet music for the first time!
You'll learn
about intervals and chord qualities, what to do with your
left hand to make your keyboard playing full and colourful,
how top keyboard players use 'inversions' and 'voicings' to
get that polished expert-like finish to their
playing.
Topics include
bass lines, counter melodies, intros and endings, rhythmic
patterns, and embellishing a melody. There's even a chapter
on how to accompany.
