Strong match

Who this is for

  • Pianists playing restaurant, bar, or private-party background sets
  • Singers who need a piano part and a vocal line together
  • Guitarists who read chord symbols and want lounge-set material

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Absolute beginners — P/V/G parts assume steady two-hand reading
  • Players wanting note-for-note transcriptions of specific recordings
  • Anyone needing horn, bass, or full band charts

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Piano/Vocal/Guitar arrangement

Piano staves, a vocal melody line with lyrics, and guitar chord symbols above. One book serves three players.

Detail 02

Guitar chord frames, not tab

Guitarists get chord symbols and grids to comp from, not written-out single-note lines.

Detail 03

Cocktail lounge repertoire

Arrangements sit in a relaxed, background-set style rather than concert or note-heavy solo piano writing.

Detail 04

Print book, no audio

You read it. There are no play-along tracks, so practice tempo is on you.

Detail 05

Around twenty-five dollars

Priced as a standard folio, not a fake book. Expect a themed set rather than hundreds of tunes.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01No CD or backing tracks — reading fluency is assumed
  2. 02Keys are set by the arranger; singers may need to transpose
  3. 03Softcover folios rarely lie flat on a music desk without a clip

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Is this solo piano or for a singer?

Both. The piano part stands alone, and a vocal line with lyrics sits above it for anyone singing along.

02Can a guitarist use this book?

Yes, for comping. Guitar chord symbols run above the staff. There is no tablature or written guitar part.

03What skill level does it need?

Intermediate. You should read both clefs comfortably and hold a steady tempo without stopping to decode chords.

04Does it include audio tracks?

No. It is a print songbook, so you supply your own reference recordings for tempos and feel.
