The Latin Real Book

176 Essential Latin Jazz, Salsa, Afro-Cuban & Brazilian Lead Sheets

A more focused collection of 176 carefully selected Latin compositions, built around the core repertoire of Latin jazz, Afro-Cuban music, salsa and Brazilian music. The indexed repertoire includes pieces such as Afro Blue, Armando’s Rhumba, Mambo Inn, Manteca, Ran Kan Kan, Tin Tin Deo, Son de la Loma, Palo Pa’ Rumba, So Danço Samba and Lágrimas Negras. The_Latin_Real_Book_Index_Ranges

Compared with The Real Latin Book, this collection is more concentrated on music that working Latin-jazz musicians are likely to encounter on the bandstand, including compositions associated with artists such as Mongo Santamaría, Chick Corea, Tito Puente, Eddie Palmieri, Rubén Blades, Antonio Carlos Jobim and other major Latin and Brazilian composers.

I organized this edition with song bookmarks and accurate page ranges, making it much easier to jump directly to a tune during a rehearsal or performance instead of scrolling through hundreds of pages.

Available in C and B♭ editions.

Ideal for Latin-jazz musicians, horn players, rhythm-section players, salsa musicians, students and anyone building a professional digital Latin repertoire.
