Mantras use the energy of sacred sound to bring benefit to the human body and psyche. Their main purpose is to harmonize the energy of our heart, mind, and body.
This is done through vibration, content, and repetition. The creation of this balance of energy has been used for centuries to access and open the human heart and mind and connect them to spiritual powers.
All mantras collected in this e-book originate from Hinduism. Music has a foundational place in Hindu mythology. It has played a role in the worship of deities and saints, and even in a non-religious context, such as yoga, meditation, and spiritual self-transformation. Also if are interested in Indian culture, playing mantras will evoke a deep resonance in your heart.
This songbook is suitable for any keyboard musical instrument: piano, synthesizer, accordion, melodica, even for percussion instruments such as xylophone or marimba.
This e-book is for adults who are absolute beginners in music. You don’t have to read sheet music or have any kind of musical background.
If you are a beginner, playing by notes can be difficult. It is easier to begin to play by following letters. You just need to get and apply stickers with the note letters on your piano keys.
Also, I added a QR code to all songs. Follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play.

There are 5 games in this e-book that help your children or students learn and remember musical notes, their location on the staff and on the keyboard. You have to cut and assemble them yourself.
Game #1 - Do-Re-Mi Dominos. Note names and symbols are taught by the correspondence between the notes (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, etc.) and their location on the musical staff.
Game #2 - CDEF Note Game teaches the correspondence between note letter notations (C, D, F, G etc.) and their locations on the musical staff.
Game #3 - Find a Pair Card Game. There are two sets of cards, one with note staff location and the other with note keyboard location. Cards need to be matched appropriately. The correct choice can be confirmed with the note name, which is on the reverse of all cards.
Game #4 - Treble Clef Dominos teaches the correspondence between Treble clef notes and their place on the keyboard.
Game #5 - Bass Clef Dominos teaches the correspondence between Bass clef notes and their place on the keyboard.
Cut out the cards for each game from the e-book, and play individually or in pairs.
Dominos rules: Play this game alone or with others.
Lay out dominoes face down, and shuffle. Each player takes 7 dominoes. Player 1 lays down any domino. Next to it, Player 2 lays a domino which is its counterpart. Make sure the two joined dominoes represent the same musical note. If you do not have a domino to match, pick one from the pile. Whoever plays all dominoes first wins. Game also ends when there are no more possibilities. When playing alone, try to connect all dominoes.
These games are ideal for use at a music school or as a home activity.
This e-book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs from different countries around the world. Their goal was to assist you in acquainting your students with the musical traditions of diverse nations and cultures.
International songs are one of the most exciting and appealing avenues to introducing children to new and different cultures through music.
I’ve gathered 45 different national songs adapted especially for kalimba including lyrics, classic sheet music, number-coded notation, and online audio tracks.
The songbook is colorfully designed with national patterns. You will enjoy folk music, children’s songs, hymns, popular melodies, and dances.
This educational e-book will help you begin to play music simply and easily. If you are a beginner, playing by notes can be difficult. It is easier to play the finger piano by following numbers.
My sheet music is universal and suitable for any 8-, 10- or 17- note kalimba or mbira.
Some melodies might have been changed and simplified to be played within one octave. If your thumb piano has flat keys, I recommend you to use classic sheet music for piano.
Also, I have added a QR code to all songs. You can follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play.
In many ways, music is a universal language, crossing borders and opening up a whole new world to your mind.

The power of the mantra lies in its ability to bring individuals to a state where they can reflect upon their inner selves. The use of repetitive sacred utterances allows one to access the divine.
Mantras allow individuals to access their inner selves in a very powerful way. Repeating sounds considered sacred allows one to access the divine. The word “mantra” is derived from Sanskrit and simply means a sacred sound.
In yoga practice, mantras play a key role. Typically, practitioners of yoga chant mantras at the beginning and end of a yoga session. Here, I have created a collection of mantras that are used in a variety of yoga traditions: Patanjali, Vinyasa, Kundalini Yoga. I also include several Buddhist mantras which are usually used at the end of a yoga session when Metta meditation is done.
This songbook is suitable for any keyboard musical instrument: piano, synthesizer, accordion, melodica, even for percussion instruments such as xylophone or marimba.
Also, I added a QR code to all songs. Follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play.

This e-book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs from different countries around the world. Their goal was to assist you in acquainting your students with the musical traditions of diverse nations and cultures.
This e-book includes 53 popular, rhythmic, and easy-to-play folk songs and melodies from all over the world. Through music, we are brought together and we can gain a better understanding of people from all corners of the Earth.
Getting to know music from around the world can be one of the most exciting and appealing ways to be introduced to new and different cultures. Music is a universal language, meaning that it transcends borders and opens up an entirely new way of thinking.
You do not need to have any musical experience or be able to read music to use this e-book. It is aimed at your or your kid’s first musical experience with a toy musical instrument. Nowadays, toy xylophones are well-tuned and can be used to easily become introduced to the world of music.
If you have this specific xylophone (pictured below), you can play all 53 songs. I chose the most popular model on the market, where the C and C8 notes are colored in blue. However, if your model is a little bit different, for example C is red, C8 is white or C and C8 both are red, this e-book will also work for you. Besides colored circles corresponding to the key color of your small xylophone, there are note letters inside each circle. Just follow the letter and play.
If the colors of the keys of your instrument don’t match the colors of the notes in our book, we offer an uncolored version as an alternative. You can mark the circles with the color that matches your bells or the keys of your xylophone using a PDF editor or print the pages and color them with pencils.

This e-book is for adults who are absolute beginners in music. You don’t have to read sheet music or have any kind of musical background. No previous knowledge is necessary. None at all.
If you don’t know musical notes well, you can PLAY BY LETTER.
There are 7 sections and 43 songs. All songs are adapted for beginners and can be played with just one hand. Some songs in this e-book have several versions, with one of them being more advanced. This will allow you to see how the same melody can be played in different keys.
Whatever your age, it is never too late to begin to play the piano (or any keyboard instrument). For middle-aged people, learning a musical instrument can be a great digital detox, and it also can unlock the door to a new interest or forgotten emotions.

This book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs from 30 different countries. Their goal was to assist you in acquainting your students with the musical traditions of diverse nations and cultures.
The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, Hapi drum, mandala, or lotus drum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. You don’t need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them. The main purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world.
No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. It is impossible to play them incorrectly. Anyone can play them: those who want to develop a good sense of rhythm and an ear for music, those who are seeking relaxation after a hard day at work, and those who want to introduce something unusual into their lives and explore their inner selves.
This e-book is aimed at those who want to add popular melodies to their experimentation.
I use numbers above the classic notes because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. This is great for the absolute beginner who cannot read sheet music.
Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this e-book are possible to play in one octave.
Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, I recommended you to use the classic sheet music for piano.

The xylophone is the most important traditional folk instrument on the African continent, alongside the drum. Usually, African scales differ from Western ones. The African xylophones mostly have 5, 6, or 7-note (pentatonic, hexatonic, heptatonic) scales, while Western instruments typically have a diatonic scale. Rhythm is the most distinguishing characteristic of African music and it always prevails over the melody.
The songs in this e-book have been adapted and can be played on all models of popular wooden xylophone, metal glockenspiel (metallophone), or resonator blocks. Even a simple kids’ xylophone will be adequate to play most of these songs. Some songs here have been simplified for beginners.
The same song played on a wooden xylophone and on a metallophone will result in very different sounds. Due to their clear rhythmic patterns, African songs are an ideal material for any kind of musician. You will find both diatonic and chromatic scores. Some melodies have been especially transposed to a diatonic range to allow you to play them on the most popular models of xylophone.
This e-book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments and I put letter notation above the notes to make it possible for you to confidently begin playing.
Since African music assumes improvisation and variation, I recommend using this sheet music only as a guide. The most important thing is to listen and repeat the recordings linked to the QR code, so you can listen to the rhythm before beginning to play.

Playing traditional music notes is difficult for people who have no musical knowledge. You need to know the rhythmic value of each note, its place on the staff, note duration, and combination with other notes. To be aware of all this simultaneously demands music experience and advanced skills. Nevertheless, even if you have never studied music, you can begin to play complicated melodies, and also experiment with your tongue drum in a meditative way.
The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, hapi drum, mandala or lotus drum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations and body. You don’t need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them.
I collect very simple and well-known songs and melodies with easy rhythms. You can begin to play in just two steps. First, you will play using circles that contain either a number, without having to consider note duration, key, or time signatures. These numbers correspond to those on the keys of your tongue drum. So you just need to follow the numbers.
You can get an idea of how the song might be played by listening to the YouTube clip of the same song, which you can access with the QR code below each song. Then, if you find that you can play the song with more confidence, you can try using the second page of the same song, with the actual notes. There, the same melody is written in a traditional manner with all the necessary musical symbols. However, I simplified the melodies in this step as well, transposing the most songs for one octave, leaving the numbers under the notes. I hope that playing these simple melodies will bring you a new relaxation and meditation experience filled with a lot of joy.

This sheet music e-book will help you begin to play music simply and easily, with no required knowledge of reading notes.
If you are a beginner, playing by notes can be difficult. It is easier to follow letters.
Traditional Kalimba Tablature is called Tabs.
Each tabs should match the number of tines on your kalimba. For example, if your kalimba has 8 tines, you need to search for “8-note kalimba tabs.”
My sheet music is not Tabs and it is not for a specific kalimba, but it is universal and suitable for any 8-17 note kalimbas.
Follow the letters… and begin to play! Even if you don’t know musical notes, you will confidently be able to play easily using the letter notation!
This e-book might include only letters and it will be enough to begin to play, but I decided to add classic note symbols to help teach them and show musical notation.
All songs were adapted especially for the kalimba, which is a diatonic musical instrument and has no flat keys.
Most songs will be played within one octave.
Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, please use the classic music score for piano.

The kalimba came from Africa, but it is perfectly suitable for any kind of ethnic music. The kalimba has a rather meditative quality since each sound can be observed separately. Mindful observation of playing each note can even induce a trance state in the listener.
Although mantras are not typically played on the kalimba, you can have a unique spiritual experience nonetheless.
If you love yoga, meditation or are interested in Indian culture, playing mantras will evoke a deep resonance in your heart.
Here are 20 Indian mantras adapted for 10 and 17 key kalimbas. All songs are in easily readable diatonic arrangements with number notation. My aim is to make playing as simple as possible.
Even if you don’t have any musical background, you will begin to play very fast.
I added a QR code to all songs. You can follow the link and listen to the rhythm and the melody before beginning to play.

The melodica is a perfect instrument for playing mantric melodies.
If you don’t have a traditional Indian harmonium (or pump organ), the melodica is the most suitable instrument: light, portable, most versatile among small instruments, reliable, and easy to learn. The melodica includes 34-38 keys which make it possible to play rather complex music.
The Melodica is a free-reed instrument whose original sound is closer to a harmonica or an accordion, but mostly to an Indian harmonium. The harmonium arrived in India during the mid-19th century, but it is an important instrument in many genres in India, mostly the spiritual.
Mantras use the energy of sacred sound to bring benefit to the human body and psyche. Their main purpose is to harmonize the energy of our heart, mind, and body. The creation of this balance of energy has been used for centuries to access and open the human heart and mind, and connect them to physical and spiritual powers.
Here you will find the most famous and powerful mantras, mostly in Sanskrit, from different traditions: Hindu, Buddhist, or Sikh.
Most mantras have been simplified for beginners, and letter names have been added under the musical notes to make it possible for you to confidently begin playing. If you love yoga, meditation, or are interested in Indian culture, playing mantras will evoke a deep resonance in your heart.
Mantras can be accompanied by any chromatic instrument, and my easy-to-play sheet music with audio track links will support you in your musical experience, whether it be music playing, individual yoga, or meditation. I am certain that this practice will help you to work through your negative emotions.

30 Songs you can play for your baby immediately on any instrument you may have at home without any musical background.
Hi. Now you are parents. Or grandparents.
The second is much easier but does not free you from the duty of singing lullabies and other funny kids’ songs to your little ones.
Do you feel forced to sing them? It’s not easy, is it? Especially if you’re tone-deaf. Did your schoolmates study violin while you were playing hooky from music class? Now with the kids, you’re stuck and everyone expects you to be a lullaby singer.
Well, I have a solution for you.
If your only singing has been in the shower, let us help you become a real musician. And you can do it with any instrument. Even a toy piano, if it is tuned.
If you are a musician, this e-book is not for you. You can go play your instrument in an orchestra. Kids like simple music.
I offer you a guaranteed time-tested set of cool kids’ songs. These are famous kids’ songs (which you’ll recognize) and also some musical nursery rhymes threw in.
What do you need for your musical success? Equipment for starters.
It could be any key instrument like a piano, melodica, kalimba, marimba, synthesizer, xylophone, glockenspiel, or a color bell set with 8 bells or more.
Drums, tambourines, castanets, and music rattles are also welcome.
The main argument for the idea of not being able to play in a band with your child immediately is I CANNOT READ MUSIC SHEET. Don’t worry! You don’t have to!
I made my pictures large and as simple as possible. You’ll easily play by circles. No musical staff or notes. Your listeners are not very critical and won’t know the difference. Kids are the best listeners in the world.
Important!
You will be able to begin to play right away if the keys of your instrument have letter notations on the keys (like kalimba or xylophone).
For other instruments, you just need to get and apply stickers with letter notations. Just 8 stickers will be enough. Write the notes with a marker - A B C D E F G and C8.
Easy play songs were adapted especially for beginners.
Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, please use the classic music score for the piano.

This e-book was written to help the absolute beginner, whether child or adult learn to play in a simple and easy way that requires no knowledge of reading music. If you are a beginner, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow color-coded circles with note letters.
Important! The keys’ color of your musical instrument must be the same as the color of the scheme below. The color chromatic scale in this e-book corresponds to the popular Chroma-Notes® color system.
C (Do) - Red
D (Re) - Orange
E (Mi) - Yellow
F (Fa) - Light Green
G (Sol) - Aquamarine
A (La) - Purple
B (Ti) - Dark Pink
C8 (Do) - Red
There are 3 levels in this e-book.
Level 1. Play by a color circle. Each song here is written with color circles and letter notes inside. The circles are grouped by rhythm. The duration of the whole, dotted half, and half notes are depicted by the arches after the circles (2, 3, or 4 beats).
Level 2. Get acquainted with the musical staff. Learn the places of each note on a staff. No note durations (note length) here.
Level 3. Play by a classic note on a musical staff. Here is the “adult” musical notation: clef, duration, rests, and connection of the notes, but the helpful color circles and letters are still above the notes.
Each song was adapted for the newbie and has just 8 notes (one octave).
At the end of the e-book, you will also find simple puzzles that will make reading notes easier.

Guess, What Songs Are They Singing?
What Songs These Trains Are Carrying?
I present the easy-to-play songs in this songbook for beginners.
You, your kids or students will have the opportunity to jump right into the music immediately. Music bells create an amazing sound and there is no need to worry about being in tune or finger position. It’s a great instrument for beginners of any age.
The unique advantage of bell sets is the fact that each note is created by an individual bell, so the notes that are not used in a particular song can be removed and the student has a greater chance for success. A handbell orchestra acts as one instrument, with each musician responsible for their particular notes, sounding their assigned bells whenever those notes appear in the music.
Give each participant one or two bells and ask them to join in a simple melody. Independently, whether the player has musical knowledge or not, the band will sound harmoniously with just a little bit of training. Most solfeggio teachers advise that it’s better to begin not with a piano, but with a simpler and more accessible instrument.
However, like other “serious” musical instruments, bells can help in
teaching note duration,
understanding different pitches,
recognizing different musical scales, and
the acquisition of a sense of rhythm and melody.
If you are a beginner, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow color-coded circles with note letters. Just by following the color circles, you will sound like an experienced musician.
All songs were written with circles in the musical staff, and there are no stems or flags - only notes on the line - to keep it simple. This e-book was written with beginners in mind.
Important!
My color-coded scale corresponds to the chakra system. Each chakra is said to vibrate at a different frequency and is associated with a particular color and particular music note.
The color of the bells or resonator blocks must be the same as the color of the bells below.
C (Do) - red,
D (Re) - orange,
E (Mi) - yellow,
F (Fa) - green,
G (Sol) - light blue,
A (La) - blue,
B (Ti) - violet,
C8 (Do) - white

This e-book aims to help beginners play the piccolo simply and easily. The e-book includes 36 piccolo diagrams with fingering positions, along with pitch names and staff notations and 36 illustrations of the fingering location on the piccolo itself.
The piccolo is about half the size of a flute, and it sounds one octave higher. It plays the highest notes of the woodwind family.
The piccolo also is a transposing instrument, and the piccolo’s sheet music is never written at the pitch it actually sounds. Instead, the piccolo sounds one octave higher than its written pitch. The musical notes in this e-book cover almost 3 octaves from D4 to C7 (written). The resulting sound on the piccolo is from D5 to C8.
Here are the primary fingerings (basic charts). Note that the e-book does not include Trill or Tremolo fingerings.
You can print and cut out the charts to use them as flash cards or mount them on a wall as posters. Each note here has its own piece of paper. One side of the page shows the connection between the dots and their fingering on a diagram, and the reverse side depicts the same fingering illustration on the piccolo itself.
Under the piccolo pictures, you will also find the fingering combinations depicted with the names of the keys. You may choose a style that is more understandable and comfortable for you.
I hope these fingering charts will be a valuable visual aid for you and your kids or students. The size of the cut-out is 6.5x10 inches (16x25 cm).
This e-book aims to help beginners play alto recorder simply and easily.
The set includes 48 pictures (21 notes) with fingering positions for the alto recorder, with pitch names and notations.
The musical notes included are:
F G A Bb B C D Eb E F F# G A Bb B C Db D Eb E F
Several notes have alternate fingerings.
You can cut out the pages and use them as a visual aid for you, your kids, or if you are a teacher, for your students. The size of the cut-out is 6.5x10 inches (16.5 x 25.5 cm).
One side of the cut-out shows the connection between the dots and their fingering, and the reverse side depicts the same fingering scheme shown on a flute with numbered holes.
You can choose the style that is more understandable and comfortable for you.
You have never played music before or you cannot read sheet music, but you want to play famous and inspiring hymns and spirituals. Don’t worry! You will begin to play right away. I made my pictured sheet music as simple as possible. You’ll play by letter-coded circles. No musical staff or notes. The easy-to-play songs and melodies were adapted especially for beginners.
The melodies have been transposed to one octave and simplified. Also, the letter-coded notations have been added and complex notations and symbols have been reduced. Such simplification makes it possible for people to play melodies, especially those who can’t read music or who have never played
music before. Additionally, it makes it possible to play on the most primitive instruments, such as a child’s xylophone, bell sets, chime bars, and even a kid’s piano.
You will be able to begin to play right away if the keys of your instrument have letter notations on the keys. Some percussion instruments already have them. They are printed by suppliers (for example, a simple xylophone or kalimba).
For other instruments, you just need to get and apply stickers with letter notations. For most songs, just 8 stickers will be enough.
Most songs from this e-book are possible to play on an 8-note instrument, so a one-octave instrument, for example, a 10-key kalimba, 8-key xylophone, small tongue drum, handbells, or even toy piano will be enough.
But some songs here involve the neighboring with the main octave notes. For these songs, you will need a 2-3 octave instrument. It might be the kalimba with 17 keys, 15+ key xylophone, melodica, synthesizer, or piano. All of them need to have special note stickers for beginners. These transparent removable stickers are available on Amazon for 88/61/54/49 key instruments and they can really help in your musical experience.
I don’t use most musical symbols and notations here: the length of the notes, bars, beams, etc.
This e-book is aimed at your first musical experience no matter what age you are. There is no wrong time or not enough preparation to take up spiritual pursuits.
