In this songbook, we’ve gathered a collection of English-language romantic songs and ballads from various countries, including England, Ireland, Scotland, the USA, and Australia. The book features 62 songs, all of which can be played on any keyboard instrument with 13 or more notes. Versatility Across Instruments These songs can be played on various keyboard instruments such as the piano and melodica, as well as non-keyboard instruments like the xylophone or kalimba, provided they have sufficient notes. Beginner-Friendly Notation While all the melodies are written in traditional musical notation, this book is also beginner-friendly. For those who aren’t yet comfortable reading sheet music, we’ve included corresponding letter inside each note. The letters used in this book follow the common musical notation system, ranging from C to B for each octave. QR Code Resources Each song has 2 QR codes coming with it. The QR code with rounded corners leads to the song played on a tongue drum. The square QR code leads to Youtube. Scan this code to hear the song played by professionals. While these recordings may not exactly match the versions notated in this book, they serve as useful guides for understanding the melody and rhythm. Song Variations This songbook contains 52 unique songs. Additionally, 10 songs are presented in two variations, differing in pitch, note lengths, or the number of notes, giving you even more options to explore. We hope you enjoy the timeless charm of these traditional romantic songs and ballads. Whether you’re a complete beginner or more experienced, this collection offers a quick and enjoyable path to learning and playing these beautiful melodies.

This e-book aims to help beginners play the French horn. The e-book includes 45 diagrams with fingering positions and staff notation for 3 different types of French horns. The musical notes cover almost 6 octaves. The most basic type of French horn (because of its lightweight, easy playability, and low cost) is the single horn. Also, it is the most popular choice for beginning students. The main difference between single and double French horns is the number of valve slides per rotor. In general, single horns have one valve slide per rotor, while double horns have two. Two tubing sets make the double horn heavier and more complicated to use than the single French horn. These fingering charts are suitable for F and Bb single horns and F/Bb double horns. While the F single French horn has 3 buttons, both the F/Bb double french horn and the Bb single French horn have 4 buttons, the extra being for the thumb. The numbers of buttons that are colored are those that need to be pressed to play the given note. You can print and cut out the charts to use them as flash cards or mount them on the wall as posters. The size of the cut-out is 6.5x10 inches (16x25 cm).

You have a great opportunity to jump right into the music. Music bells create an amazing sound and there is no need to worry about being in tune or finger position. musicalIt’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. If you are a beginner, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow color-coded circles with 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. My color chromatic 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 musical note. However, if your model is a little bit different, for example, C and C8 both are red, this e-book will also work for you. This sheet music is suitable for desk bells and for handbells.

This illustrated learning e-book (black and white version) will help you begin to play music by letter simply and easily. The recorder songbook includes not only letters but also classic sheet music and it is helpful in developing music literacy. Most of the presented melodies are rather unique. Although my songbook includes basically kids’ songs, you will find several Christian hymns and Christmas carols. This e-book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs. In addition, you can find another e-book for the recorder musical instrument with the most popular songs from around the world “Recorder for Beginners. 50 Easy-to-Play Songs from Over the World”. Attention: Some melodies might be changed and simplified for beginners to be played within one octave. Letter names have been added to the classic musical notes to make it possible for you to confidently begin playing. Also, QR codes have been added to all songs so you can follow the link and hear the rhythm before playing.

The most difficult thing about playing Native American songs is their irregular rhythms. It might change several times during a song because rhythm is generally more important than melody. Songs for American tribes are traditionally a method of communicating with their ancestors and supernatural powers. Music is used to help grow a harvest, bring rain, bring victory in battle or cure the sick. Music is seldom performed for its own sake and as a rule, the tribes tried to repeat sounds that were heard in nature (whispering winds, rain sounds, etc). That is why the rhythm prevailed and words were not so important. Some songs such as ceremonial or medicinal ones often were inspired by dreams. Here you can find traditional songs, handed down from generation to generation These traditional American folk songs are possible to play on the piano, Melodica, glockenspiel, xylophone, or synthesizer keyboard, but remember that traditional American music never involved or included a piano or other keyboard instrument. I added a QR code to each song. Follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play. Table of Contents Ani Couni - Arapaho Song. (Version 1) Ani Couni - Arapaho Song.

All 70 songs in this e-book have been written without using the classic music score system, because it is for the absolute beginners who can’t read sheet music. This e-book is aimed at those who want to add popular melodies to their experimentation. I used circles with numbers because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. I do not show the note duration. You can experiment with a duration on your own. I recommend finding each of these songs on YouTube and listening to the rhythm before beginning to play. My sheet music is only a guide. The most important thing is to listen and repeat the recordings. All songs from this e-book are possible to play in one octave. These songs are suitable for a diatonic 8-note tongue drum, which should have numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 1 of the next octave. Please note: if you have a model of the tongue drum with 5 tongues, or if some keys from the octave are missing, you will not be able to play all of the songs in this e-book. The songbook includes very simple, popular children’s and folk songs, but even well-known children’s songs played on the tong drum will create an unusual magical sound.

Mantras use the energy of sacred sound to bring benefit to the human body and psyche. This is done through vibration, content, and repetition, and the purpose is to harmonize the energy of one’s 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 spiritual powers. Most mantras consist of simple words or sounds that evoke a deep resonance. These mantras were adapted here for Tongue Drum and Handpan and they are possible to play on most drum models. Songs have been transposed for a steel drum sound range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, hapi, or steeldrum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum, meditation, healing, or chakra drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. The main purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world. We write the note numbers above the notes because our sheet music is aimed at absolute beginners. Just follow numbers and enjoy. Also, we add a QR code to most songs. Follow the link and find this song before beginning to play. For which tongue drum are these mantras suitable? Each tongue drum is very different, and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one book. This book is suitable for most models of handpan, but if you have a tongue drum, it should have a minimum of 10 keys, because many songs in this book involve more than one-octave notes. 13 melodies from this book are suitable for a 1-octave tongue drum. Others melodies require a 10+ key tongue drum or a handpan.

This e-book aims to help beginners play the Alto saxophone. The e-book includes 42 saxophone diagrams with fingering positions and staff notation and 42 illustrations of the fingering location on the saxophone itself. The musical notes cover almost 4 octaves from A#3 to Eb7. Here are the basic and altissimo fingerings suitable for alto saxophones. This e-book does not include the trill fingerings. Learn trill fingering with my e-book: “Saxophone Trill Fingering Chart”. You 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 page in the e-book. 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 musical instrument. Under the picture of the key, you will also find the fingering combinations depicted with the names of the key. Choose a style that makes it easier for you to learn. If you are a beginner/student or even more advanced, try hanging the individual pages on the wall in front of you. The size of the cut-out is 6.5x10 inches.

This e-book consists of 2 parts: The first includes the most essential mantras for your yoga practice. The second part includes the most sacred chants from different traditions: Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Jain, Christian, and Islamic. 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, and Kundalini Yoga. I also included several Buddhist mantras which are usually used at the end of a yoga session when Metta meditation is done. The handpan because of its unusual sound might be a great tool in your spiritual practice and experience. These mantras were adapted here for Tongue Drum and Handpan and they are possible to play on most drum models. Songs have been transposed for a steel drum sound range. Some melodies have been changed and simplified.

I call this series “I don’t read music” since I am targeting beginners of all ages: children, teens, parents, grandparents. Folk music traditionally is not learned from sheet music or notes. Instead, it is learned by repetition and from being passed from generation to generation. I believe in this method of teaching, which is easier and more enjoyable. This e-book includes 63 familiar and easy-to-play folk songs and melodies. Each song here is written with color circles and letter notes inside. Most songs have been simplified and transposed for one octave. Since this e-book is aimed at the absolute beginner without any knowledge of reading music, I do not use here the classical music staff and do not show the note duration. You can experiment with the duration on your own. If you have very little music experience, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow color-coded circles with note letters. By simply following the color circles, you will sound like an experienced musician. This songbook uses the Chroma-Notes Colored Music System, popular in the US. I recommend finding each of these songs on YouTube and listening to the rhythm before beginning to play. My sheet music is only a guide. The most important thing is to listen and repeat the recordings. Attention: This learning sheet music will be most useful for the musical instruments with the color scheme below: C = red, D = orange, E = yellow, F = green, G = light blue, A = blue, B = violet, C8 =red. 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.

My sheet music includes fingering positions, letter-coded notation, and song lyrics for a 4-hole ocarina. Although your ocarina has just 4 holes, this small instrument can produce 8 natural notes, the full range from C to C, and 5 flat or sharp notes: a total of 13 notes. This songbook is suitable for a 6-hole ocarina also, in this case, 2 holes on the back side of the instrument should be always covered with thumbs. The fingering positions are shown in the e-book graphically on an image of a standard-shaped ocarina with four holes. Each hole on the ocarina is represented by circles. The circles filled in black indicate which holes should be covered while playing. The open circles mean they should be uncovered. The bottom circles correspond to the holes on the ocarina which are closest to your mouth. Circles on the left are played using the left hand and are played with the index and middle fingers, while those on the right side are played with the same fingers on the right hand. Ocarinas always have 1 hole which is never covered. This is the place where sound is released from the ocarina, which is called the whistle. The 4-hole ocarina is a simple beginner instrument. It is cheap and portable, has a simple structure and form, and is easy to begin to play. Ocarinas are made from a variety of materials. The most popular models are made of plastic, porcelain, ceramic, or wood. My sheet music is based on a 4-hole ocarina tuned in C Major.

Music is an integral part in the life of the Native Americans, playing a key role in ceremonies, recreational activities, self-expression, and healing. Many different instruments are used in Native American music, including drums, flutes, and other percussion instruments. This e-book is suitable for most models of handpan, but if you have a tongue drum, it should have a minimum of 10 keys, because many songs in this e-book involve more than one-octave notes. The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, hapi, or steeldrum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum, meditation, healing, yoga, or chakra drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. In musical science, a unique Native American style of singing can be distinguished. It is characterized by rhythmic breathing, a tense voice, and syllabic sounds being more important than lyrics. These technical features helped the shaman achieve a trance state. Although the tongue drum is a modern musical instrument, is perfectly suitable for any tribal song. Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If your drum has flat keys, it is recommended that you use the classic sheet music for the piano. I wrote the note numbers above the notes because my sheet music is aimed at absolute beginners. Just follow numbers and enjoy. Here you can find traditional songs, handed down from generation to generation: ceremonial (such as corn grinding or moccasin game songs) or healing songs. Also, I added a QR code to most songs. Follow the link and find this song on YouTube, so that you can listen to the rhythm before beginning to play.

Flutes are a part of the Native American tradition. Original instruments have from zero to 7 finger holes, and each flute master designs their own instrument in order to find their own unique sound. Flutes, along with percussion instruments, were used for ceremonial and healing purposes. These songs were adapted here for Recorder musical instrument. Songs for American tribes are traditionally a method of communicating with their ancestors and supernatural powers. Music is used to help grow a harvest, bring rain, bring victory in battle or cure the sick. Music is seldom performed for its own sake and as a rule, the tribes tried to repeat sounds which were heard in nature (whispering winds, rain sounds, etc).

This e-book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs from different countries. Their goal was to assist you in acquainting your students with the musical traditions of diverse nations and cultures. Through music, we are brought together and we can gain a better understanding of people from all corners of the Earth. I call this series “I Don’t Read Music” since I are targeting beginners of all ages: children, teens, parents, and grandparents. 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. This e-book includes 53 popular, rhythmic, and easy-to-play folk songs and melodies from all over the world. Since this e-book is aimed at the absolute beginner without any knowledge of reading music, I do not use the classical music staff and do not show the note duration. Each song here is written without classic musical notation but only with circles and numbered notes inside. First of all, I recommend following the QR-code which you will find on each page, listening to the song on YouTube, and then trying to repeat what is heard in the recordings. It will help to understand the rhythm pattern and duration. Keep in mind that folk music traditionally is not learned from sheet music or notes. Instead, it is learned by repetition and through being passed from generation to generation. I believe in this method of teaching, which is easier and more enjoyable. For learning purposes, all songs have been simplified and adapted especially for 8 key drums.

Usually, a guide for kalimba offers the possibility of playing by letter or by number, with letters being more common. The modern kalimba often has engraved numbers and letters representing the name of the notes. The numbered musical notation is a cipher notation system used mostly in Asia, including China. In this e-book, I recommend playing by letter and/or color. Even if the signs are not engraved on the keys, normally, however, each kalimba has letter-coded stickers included in the set. Usually, they are not color-coded and since my e-book doesn’t include stickers, I suggest making color-coded stickers yourself or color the including stickers. This is very easy and you can do it with very small pieces of colored paper. My sheet music is not for a specific kalimba but is universal and suitable for 8-17 note kalimbas. This e-book includes 35 gospel songs. Many spirituals “sorrow songs” are slow and melancholic and are ideally suitable for kalimba. I made my pictured sheet music as simple as possible, songs have been transposed for a diatonic range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. You’ll quickly begin to play by letter-coded circles.

In this songbook, we’ve compiled a collection of traditional English-language songs and ballads from various countries, including England, Ireland, Scotland, the USA, and Australia. The book features 77 songs, all of which can be played on any C-major tongue drum with 13 or more keys. Most of the songs can also be played on an 11-key tongue drum. All melodies are written in traditional musical notation, but this book is beginner-friendly as well. For those unfamiliar with reading sheet music, we’ve added corresponding numbers above each note. The numbering system in this book uses the common diatonic scale, with numbers ranging from 1 to 7 to represent the notes of each octave. Each page includes QR codes that link to recordings of the songs. While these recordings may not exactly match the traditional versions notated in this book, they serve as useful guides for understanding the melodies and rhythms. Playing by Numbers For tongue drums with numbered musical notation, the numbers 1 to 7 represent the notes of the diatonic major scale. Dots above or below the numbers indicate notes from a higher or lower octave, respectively. The songs in this books are adapted for the tongue drums with C-major scale. The number of notes available to you will depend on the range of your tongue drum.

You have never played music before or cannot read sheet music, and yet you want to play inspiring hymns, famous religious folk songs, and spirituals? Don’t worry! You will begin to play right away. Many spiritual “sorrow songs” are slow and melancholic and are ideally suitable for kalimba. I made my pictured sheet music as simple as possible. You’ll play by number-coded circles. No musical staff or notes. The easy-to-play songs and melodies were adapted especially for beginners. You will be able to begin to play right away if the keys of your instrument have number notations. Most kalimbas already have them. My sheet music is universal and suitable for 10-17 note kalimbas. Each of the modern kalimbas usually has engraved numbers and letters representing the name of the notes. The low notes are in the center of the kalimba. The notes become higher as you move away from the center. The order of the notes alternates from right to left, going outward as you move up the scale. Taking “C D E F G A B C”, “C” is on the right side, and then you will find “D” on the left. The standard 17-note kalimba contains 3 octaves: a full 2nd small octave, a 3rd small octave, and 3 notes from the 4th small octave. The 2nd small octave goes from C4 to C5 and is depicted in my sheet music as simple numbers. The notes from the 3rd small octave have numbers with one dot above each number. The 3 notes in the 4th minor octave - C6, D6, and E6 - are depicted by numbers with two dots above them. I also put one or two dots above the numbers in the sheet music if they use an octave other than the main kalimba octave. The dots will help you to begin to play immediately. Note: songs have been transposed for a diatonic range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. Updates: I appreciate your feedback, which helped us identify and correct all of the typos. Thank you for bringing them to my attention.
