ABOUT

"The Contrafact Book" is a collection of jazz contrafacts available under a public copyright license.

It mimics "The Real Book", which in turn got its name after a pun on "The Fake Book".

The goal is to get rid of the music royalties to use the standard repertoire for public gigs, recordings and the like.

At your option you can also include the native format (Finale/Sibelius/MuseScore/etc) file for the score as well as any extra material or information you'd like to be published.

Please refer to -> Lenza fine for a complete example, and feel free to send a message for any clarification.
