I collected 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 most songs for one octave, and 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. 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 its 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.

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).

This book contains Kodaly’s hand system, along with recorder fingering charts, for each note. This correspondence between note, hand sign, and finger position on the recorder is further enhanced by the inclusion of chromatic notes. e set includes 18 pictures with fingering positions for the soprano recorder, with pitch names and notations. The musical notes included are: C С# D D# E F F# G G# A Bb B C D E F F# G Low F, Low F#, High F, and High F# have different fingering for Baroque and Germanic recorders. These charts are suitable for both styles of a soprano recorder. One side of the page shows the recorder fingering chart with note name and staff position, and the reverse side depicts the Kodaly (Curwen) hand sign for the corresponding note. Both sides are chroma note color-coded. Cut out the fingering charts and use them as visual aids for yourself, your kids, or your students. Use one side if you are learning or teaching the recorder fingerings and the opposite side for singing and solmization. The size of the cut-out will be 7x10 inches (181x260 mm).

This e-book aims to help beginners play flute simply and easily. The e-book includes 76 brightly colored pictures with fingering positions for the flute, with pitch names and staff notations. The musical notes included are: C C#/Db D D#/Eb E F F#/Gb G G#/Ab A A#/Bb B of the 4th, 5th and 6th octave. Cut out the fingering charts and use them as a visual aid for you, your kids or your students. The size of the cut-out is 6.5x10 inches (16x25 cm). Each note has its own piece of paper. You can post these cut-outs on the wall or use them as you like. 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 illustration. You will choose the style that is more understandable and comfortable.

The kalimba or mbira is a traditional and typical African instrument. It consists of metal keys attached by a wooden support structure. Normally, the African mbira has 4-20 keys, but there also exist mbiras with 45 keys. One of the ethnic groups of people of Zimbabwe, the Rosvi, are called “Mbira people”. Any folk song presupposes dance, but in Africa, dance is impossible to separate from a song. Music and dance accompany African birth, growing up, initiation, marriage, the birth of children, death, as well as most social activity, such as hunting, planting, and gathering. Music is often associated in Africa with magic. As the African proverb says: “the spirit cannot ascend to heaven without a song”. 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. Learn how to play music in a quick and easy way, without knowledge of reading sheet music. My sheet music is universal and suitable for any 8-, 10- or 17- note kalimbas and mbiras. Follow the numbers and begin to play! Some melodies might have been changed and simplified to be played in the diatonic range. If your thumb piano has flat keys, it is recommended that you use the classic sheet music for piano.Also, I added a QR code to all songs. You can follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play. List of 31 African songs for kalimba: Achta ta ta ta ta. Song from Morocco Askari Eee. Song from Tanzania Atadwe.

The kalimba (aka mbira, finger or thumb piano) came from Africa. It is a perfect instrument for playing any kind of ethnic music. Native Americans have never known the thumb piano. The kalimba came from Africa, but it is perfectly suitable for any tribal songs. Here are 28 traditional Native American songs 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. Here you can find traditional songs, handed down from generation to generation: ceremonial (such as corn grinding or moccasin game songs) and a medicinal song. Also, I added a QR code to all songs. Follow the link and find this song on YouTube, so that you can listen to the rhythm before beginning to play. Here, I have collected only simplified diatonic melodies. Contents Ani Couni.

Neither kids nor their parents have to read sheet music or have a musical background. No previous knowledge is necessary. None at all. Every song has a large and simple, color and letter-coded visual, along with traditional sheet music. The instruction is designed so that children begin with simple circles and gradually advance to reading notes using sheet music. We try to make this transition as easy as a game, where children advance to higher levels themselves. There is a total of 22 songs and 3 options to help children to begin to play right away. PLAYING BY COLOR CIRCLE PLAY BY LETTER PLAY WITH THE MUSICAL STAFF The player can first follow the circles and then repeat with the classic note symbols and staff. The helpful letters are always above the notes. There are 3 parts in this book. They are equal to 3 levels. Level 1. Songs that are played in one octave. All songs here appear twice: once written with circles and the next time with classic music notes. This will help kids remember the staff notes. For example: Mary Had a Little Lamb - Ver 1 - CIRCLES Mary Had a Little Lamb - Ver 1 - NOTES Level 2. In this part, you will find one version with both circles and notes and a more advanced version of the song with notes and musical notation. For example: Hot Cross Buns - Ver 1 - CIRCLES Hot Cross Buns - Ver 1 - NOTES Hot Cross Buns - Ver 2 - NOTES (Here the player will play songs in a different key and learn to transpose). Generally, the version of the song written with sheet music is a little bit more complex than a letter-coded version. Such versions already have music notations such as rests or beams, etc. You can find an illustrated explanation of the notation at the end of this book. Level 3. Here, the first two songs are versions of the same melody (different combinations of notes) written with circles and notes. This is important so that the beginner can see how the same melody can be played in different keys. First of all, this book is addressed to newcomers to any keyboard instrument (such as Piano or Synthesizer, not only Melodica). Also, it is a perfect self-training guide for children and beginner adults to mastering the challenges of percussion instruments such as kalimba, marimba, xylophone, glockenspiel, or even color bell set.

This sheet music e-book was written to help the beginner, be they child or adult, learn to play music in a simple and easy way that requires no previous knowledge of music. Just by following the circles with letters, you will sound like an experienced musician. Playing music can be effortless and an enjoyable game. There are 3 levels in this e-book: Level 1 and 2 are for beginners and use circles with letter notation, instead of notes. Level 3 has letter notation and traditional musical notes. Level 1. Songs that are possible to play within the main octave. Level 2. Songs that need to be played in an octave other than the main octave, or songs that involve the flat notes. Now you will need to select the proper note/key by ear. Level 3. These songs have been written for one octave with ordinary “adult“ musical notes and symbols. To begin to play right away without any musical knowledge, you just need to obtain and apply the stickers with letter-notation and on each key of your melodica. Most melodicas include these stickers, but you can buy them separately or create your own using common peelable paper stickers. In the sheet music e-book, you will find 28 funny kids songs. There are simple popular songs: kids learning (ABC), sleeping, Christian, church, animals. Songs: Hot Cross Buns Are you sleeping? Mary had a Little Lamb The wheels on the Bus Twinkle.

The steel tongue drum and the handpan are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body. No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. Playing drums can relieve stress and disappointment. 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. If you have less than one octave of keys on your drum, you may need to skip some songs. If you have more than 8 keys, for example, an 11- or 15-note handpan this e-book would be a great start to your drum experience. Yet, each tongue drum is very different, and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one music e-book. This songbook 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 number-coded circles with note numbers. In Africa, singing always involves dancing, so the emphasis is placed more firmly on rhythms than on melody or harmony. Due to their clear rhythmic patterns, African songs are an ideal material for any musician. Its main task is not to be reproduced, but to get everyone involved, since music, by definition, is the expression of emotional states with the help of sounds of a certain frequency and rhythm. An indication of the country of origin of the song in this tongue drum meditation music e-book is an approximation, because many traditional cultures cross current national borders. The language in which the song is sung is more important, and it can be used in various countries. Most songs have been simplified for adult beginners. 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.

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 number-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 number-coded notations have been added and complex notes 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. The steel tongue drum and the handpan 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 primary purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world. No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. For tongue drums that have numbered musical notation, numbers 1 to 7 represent the keys of the diatonic major scale. For example, a C Major scale would be: 1 =C (do), 2 =D (re), 3 = E (mi), 4= F (fa), 5 = G (sol), 6 = A (la), 7 =B (ti / si), 8 (i) = C (do) Your drum can be numbered from 1 to 8, where 8 is note C of the next octave. I use the number 1 with a dot above the digit for this note because the most popular models of tongue drums use this enumeration. All songs in this e-book have been written with numbers because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. This e-book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments, whether child or adult. It allows for simple and easy learning that requires no previous knowledge of reading 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. You may need to skip some songs if you have less than one octave of keys on your drum. Each tongue drum is very different and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one e-book. There are the following hymns and spirituals in this e-book:

This e-book was created with the intention of assisting absolute beginners, regardless of whether they are children or adults, in learning to play in a straightforward and uncomplicated manner, without requiring any knowledge of reading sheet music. For beginners, playing by following musical notes can be challenging, while it is comparatively easier to follow number-coded circles with corresponding note numbers. In the contemporary context, kalimbas typically feature engraved letters and numbers that represent the notes. The dots positioned above the numbers indicate the next octave. The majority of songs in this songbook utilize eight notes and can be played on a 10 or 17-key kalimba. In African musical traditions, singing is often intertwined with dancing, placing greater emphasis on rhythms rather than melody or harmony. African songs, characterized by their distinct rhythmic patterns, serve as excellent material for musicians of various backgrounds. The primary purpose of this e-book is not mere reproduction, but to actively engage everyone, as music, by its very definition, involves the expression of emotional states through the use of sounds with specific frequencies and rhythms. While an indication of a song’s country of origin is provided, it should be understood that many traditional cultures transcend current national borders. The language in which a song is sung holds more significance and can be utilized in multiple countries. Most songs included in this e-book have been simplified to accommodate beginners. Since African music often involves improvisation and variation, it is recommended to utilize this sheet music as a guide rather than a rigid framework. The most crucial aspect is to actively listen to and replicate the recordings accessible through the provided QR code.

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.

Ofrezco la forma más fácil de lograrque leer libros con niños sea un placer, incluso para aquellos niños que escuchan la palabra “leer” a regañadientes. Con el tipo habitual de lectura, un niño es un oyente pasivo, mientras que con “lectura con imagen”, él o ella se convierte en un participante activo. Incluso si los niños ya pueden leer, están felices de leer textos donde algunas de las palabras son reemplazadas por imágenes y lo perciben como un bono o un premio. Es más importante recibir estos bonos para los niños que recién comienzan a leer o para quienes la lectura aún requiere esfuerzo. Un niño pequeño solo puede expresar palabras representadas por imágenes. Esta “lectura” no solo hace que los niños participen plenamente en el proceso, sino que también les enseña a conciliar las palabras de la imagen con otras palabras de la oración. Los niños mayores pueden intentar leer palabras de una lista de vocabulario que aparece antes del texto.Un niño que ha comenzado a leer podrá disfrutar leyendo el texto completo. Si le estás leyendo a tu pequeño, leelentamente. Deja que tu hijo piense en la oración, encuentre la palabra correcta y disfrute el proceso de lectura.

The African songs here are written using European notation, and it should be understood that songs cannot be written as authentically as the music is played in its original form. African music does not implement temporality or major or minor chords. Therefore, the sheet music for African songs here is like a rough draft of the original music. You won’t be able to play an African song by the sheet music alone. This is true for jazz and the blues, and it is just as true for African folk music. African music always assumes improvisation, adding variations and syncopation. Its main task is not to be reproduced, but to get everyone involved, since music, by definition, is the expression of emotional states with the help of sounds of a certain frequency and rhythm. This e-book was written for keyboard, but remember that traditional African music never involved or included a piano or other keyboard instrument. An indication of the country of origin of the song is an approximation because many traditional cultures cross current national borders. The language in which the song is sung is more important, and it can be used in various countries. Most songs 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. 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.

Storytelling and activity songs and rhymes have a long tradition, and at times, they have passed down from generation to generation. My e-book has more pictures than words in order to methodically introduce each movement and associate it with a spoken word. I use two kinds of pictures: pictures that tell a story or plot which can be discussed, and pictures showing motions that will be repeated throughout the activity songs and rhymes. They are detailed so it is not necessary to go back each time. In my e-book, you will find 5 popular activity rhythms with very detailed pictures of each gesture. You and your kids will be able to learn each finger/hand movement step by step, bringing enjoyment to both of you. Contents: Patty Cake In a Cabin in the Woods Five Little Monkeys This Little Piggy Here are Grandma’s Glasses You might ask why you should buy e-books with fingerplays when there are so many free videos on YouTube. I believe that parents should define the development and entertainment of their children. Video content is entertainment, not a participatory game. It is created by somebody else, not the child, and grabs the attention of kids against their will. This e-book also provides instruction for the hand movements, but gives the child the space for their own sense of creation. Hand gestures are not done for the child, but by the child. Here is a chance for kids to think, learn, and to try for themselves. Also, the e-book suggests more activities compared with simply repeating from an image on a screen. Kids can see all gestures step to step, try them and feel them. This gives them the chance to see themselves from the outside looking in, modifying when necessary to get it just right. This self-analyzing ability is an extremely important skill for their future lives.

My sheet music is not for a specific xylophone, but it is universal and suitable for most 8-25 note xylophones. This e-book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments, whether child or adult. It allows for simple and easy learning that requires no previous knowledge of reading music. The letter notation makes it possible for you or your kids to confidently begin playing. My other e-books make it easy to play the xylophone with colored circle/letter notation. This e-book, however, includes classic note symbols so that students can begin to learn the reading of musical notes, including a musical notation showing note length, connection, etc. Most songs in this sheet music e-book can be played within one octave on the xylophone using only 8 notes. Several songs need 1.5 or 2 octaves or a 10-15 note xylophone. This percussion instrument develops not only a musical ear, but also gross and fine motor skills, and cognitive skills such as letter recognition, matching, and patterns. 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 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 are called Tabs. Each tab 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.

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.
