Real Book
Hello everybody!
Has there ever been something like a "Real Book" for oriental tunes like there is for jazz standards?
Greetings from Klaus in Germany!

There have been several collections published but there isn't really an equivalent standard book as far as I'm aware.

You're welcome! Also, do try to learn some of the simpler songs by ear, as well. It's good practice. This album has some wonderful songs that are
simple and repetitive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qku_FdWLr44

I realize that I was only thinking of Arabic music and Arabic scores of Ottoman music. There is also a "Turkish Real Book" out there. It's 3,400+
sheets of Turkish music scores, generally organized by makam. I saw it today on Scribd - https://www.scribd.com/document/196348597/The-Real-Turkish-Book
All the best,
"Udi" John

Not very useful for me, John. For unknown reasons Scribd never accepted my german paypal account. Thanks for the link anyway!
