The Great American Songbook - Jazz Songbook (English Edition)

Une vraie mine d'or pour les chanteurs et amateurs de jazz qui veulent le pratiquer. Je me suis procurée la série et j'en suis ravie. Il ne me reste plus qu'à piocher dedans pour trouver les morceaux à "travailler" !

This is a superb book. 100 great songs, great arrangements, including the sections that lead into the chorus. These sections often are eliminated in other editions.

I bought all three volumes of The Great American Songbook, which includes one featuring Jazz, one for singers and one for songwriters. There are loads of recognizable songs, but there are also some obscure gems. I think I've played from these books every day since I got them. They're well put together and should last well, they're easy to read and they include introductions, or verses that don't always get printed in what we call fake books. Chords are also included. These are now a part of my personal music library.

So tolle und viele Songs in einem Buch, in sehr angenehmer Stimmlage

A book full of great music from many of the renowned jazz singers of the last century. The chording seems spot on if somewhat beyond me but the arrangements are good and the chords seem accurate. Well worth the price, will keep me occupied for many weeks!
