As a bassist, bandleader, teacher, and music copyist, I’ve worked with hundreds of singers throughout the years. Though working musicians know hundreds of tunes, singers need to have good charts in order to have their music played the way they want. I define a \u00ab\u00a0good chart\u00a0\u00bb as a piece of written music that effectively tells the musicians what they should play.<\/p>\n
Written music comes in seven basic forms: chord charts, sheet music, songbooks, lead sheets, fake books, master rhythm charts and fully notated parts.<\/p>\n
As a musician has a responsibility to play the chart before him correctly, the supplier of the chart has the responsibility of providing the right kind of chart. Knowing what type of chart to use for what kind of tune or gig is very important.<\/p>\n
This article explains what the different types of charts are, and under what circumstances to use them. I hope you find it useful.<\/p>\n
