How it's used
Refers specifically to the written notation or printed collection of songs rather than the audio recording. While it can refer to a single sheet of music, it is very commonly used to describe a bound book containing multiple songs. It is a functional term used by musicians and students rather than a casual term for a playlist or song list.

Common mistake
Do not confuse this with 歌詞, which refers only to the lyrics of a song. Using 歌譜 implies you are looking for the musical notation or melody lines, not just the words.
