Cello Fake Book

This collection is a kind of “Real Book” for classical Cellists and presents a broad selection of well-known pieces from the repertoire of classical music, opera, musicals, jazz and tunes from all over the world for all occasions, from solemn ceremonies to jolly celebrations. This includes performances as part of public or private ceremonies to mark birthdays, weddings, funerals, anniversaries and jubilee celebrations as well as concerts in schools.

The selection ranges from popular classical works such as Bach’s ‘Air’, Mozart’s ‘Little Night Music’ or Schumann’s ‘Reverie’ and well-known operatic melodies through to medleys featuring waltzes, Dixieland or folk songs through to tangos and a few jazz standards. As the second cello part includes symbols for harmonies, it can also be played at will on keyboard, guitar and/or bass. Enjoy your ‘gig’!
