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.

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). 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. I wrote the note numbers above the notes because our sheet music is aimed at absolute beginners. Just follow numbers and enjoy. Also, I added a QR code to each song. Follow the link and find this song on YouTube, so that you can listen to the rhythm before beginning to play. For which recorders are these songs suitable? These traditional American folk songs can possibly be played on a Soprano recorder, and several songs can be played on an Alto model.

My sheet music includes fingering positions, letter-coded notation, and song lyrics for a 6-hole ocarina. Although your ocarina has just 6 holes, this small instrument can produce 10 natural notes, the full range from C to C, plus D and E of the next octave and 7 flat and sharp notes: a total of 17 notes. The fingering positions are shown in the e-book graphically on an image of a standard shaped ocarina with six holes. Each hole on the ocarina is represented by circles. The circles outside of the ocarina image represent the holes on the back side of the instrument. 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 that 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. As for the circles outside of the image, they indicate that your thumbs should be used on the holes underneath the instrument. People always connect musical notes with a specific color. This is called sound-color synesthesia. The most popular system is the chakra system, according to which, the seven notes of the major diatonic scale correspond to seven chakras or energy wheels surrounding the body. I also use this color scale for better visualization. The 6-hole Ocarina can produce a basic scale plus semitone notes, so you can still play more challenging chromatic melodies with it. My sheet music is based on a 6-hole ocarina tuned in C Major. It covers a pitch range from С5 to E6 and is capable of sharps and flats. C major 6-hole ocarina, which is the most popular model on the market. However, you can have E, F, G, B, and B-flat major ocarinas, which have different fingerings. Be careful, you’ve been warned.

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.

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 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. Just by following the color circles, you will sound like an experienced musician. Playing music can be as simple and enjoyable as a game. That is my goal: to give you what’s necessary to play beautiful music while having fun. I recommend the color bell set and 8 note color resonator blocks for your child’s first musical experience. There are 2 instruments that are best for beginners and most solfeggio teachers advise that it’s better to begin not with a piano, but with a simpler and more accessible instrument. Important! The color of the bells or resonator blocks 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 book. Level 1. Play by 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 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, just 8 notes (one octave). At the end of the book, you will also find simple puzzles that will make reading notes easier.

This e-book was written to help the beginner, whether child or adult, learn to play music in a simple and easy way that requires no knowledge of reading music. Just by following the circles with letters, you will sound like an experienced musician. I made my sheet music large and as simple as possible. You’ll play cool kids songs by circles. No musical staff or notes. Playing music can be as simple and enjoyable as a game. Some songs were adapted for a one-octave instrument. That is why most songs are simplified. That is my goal to give you what’s necessary to play beautiful music while having fun. This e-book is just as suitable for the chromatic xylophone as it is for the diatonic. 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. The 2 last songs require a chromatic xylophone since they have flat notes. For some melodies, I grouped circles to show the rhythm. Most songs are simple, popular and funny, some songs are Christian, they are perfectly suitable for a church choir or orchestra. Recommended for ages 3 and up. 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. List of kids songs: Hot Cross Buns Are you sleeping? Mary Had A Little Lamb The Wheels On The Bus Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star Old MacDonald Had A Farm Do You Know The Muffin Man?

Susanna Itsy Bitsy Spider The First Noel Yankee Doodle Row, Row, Row Your Boat Jolly Saint Nicholas Amazing Grace Silent night Beethoven - For Elise Also, my kids’ sheet music is suitable for piano, melodica, kalimba, marimba, synthesizer, glockenspiel, bells, and any pitched toy instrument with at least 8 notes.

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. This e-book includes 45 hymns and gospel songs: Amazing Grace Babylon’s Falling Christ Was Born on Christmas Day Elijah Rock Every Time I Feel the Spirit Go, Tell It on the Mountain God Is So Good Great Big Stars Great Day Holy, Holy, Holy I’ve Got Joy Joy I’ve Got Peace Like a River Jesus Loves Me Jesus Walked This Lonesome Valley Joy to the World!

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.

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.

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. CONTENTS: Adi Mantra.

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).

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.

Cut out the gestures charts and use them as a visual aid for yourself, your kids or your students. The size of the cut-out will be 8.5x11 inches (22x28 cm). Each note here has its own page in the e-book. You can post these cut-outs on the wall and your children can understand and use them on their own. Solfege (or Sol-fa), Glover, Curwen, and Kodaly hand signs are used in music to represent the different pitches of a tonal scale. By associating hearing and reading of pitches with playing/singing, they establish a physical association between these elements. A singer makes a specified shape with their hand to represent each tone of the seven-note solfege system. This e-book presents the full range of solfege hand signs, both diatonic and chromatic. The following hand signs are included: do, di, re, ri, me, mi, fa, fi, se, sol, si, le, la, li, te, ti, do The solfege hand sign system was first developed by John Curwen and then modified by Kodály to add chromatic alterations together with upward and downward head movements. Kodaly’s modification allowed children to see the actual height and depth of the pitches. This kinesthetic method of developing aural skills encourages inner hearing – hearing words, melodies, and sounds in our minds without the actual sounds being present. You can make the signs with one hand or both based on your and your students’ preference. One side of the page shows the Kodaly hand sign together with note name and staff position. The reverse shows a human figure illustrating the hand position. Do = In front of the belly button Re = In front of the chest Mi = Shoulder level Fa = Mouth level Sol = Eye level La = Forehead level Ti = Top of head level High Do = Just above head level The hand signal for a chromatic note will be at the level between the diatonic note that is before it and after it. Additionally, I include the tonal chromatic ladder to help you visualize the sequences and intervals between the tones in musical scales. This will help with playing and singing.

The unique advantage of bell sets is the fact that each note is created by an individual bell, and 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. 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. 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 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.

Are you a beginner who wants to play Christmas songs, hymns, folksongs, and spirituals but have never played music or cannot read sheet music? Don’t worry! With my simple, picture-based sheet music, you can start playing immediately. The songs and melodies have been adapted especially for beginners, using number-coded circles instead of musical staff or notes. The sheet music is suitable for 10-17 note kalimbas and the most modern kalimbas already have engraved numbers and letters representing the name of the notes. The notes become higher as you move away from the center and alternate from right to left. The songs cover two or three octaves and I use dots to indicate different octaves. 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 three notes C6, D6, and E6 in the 4th octave are indicated by numbers with two dots above them. The numbers and dots will help you to begin to play immediately. Follow the numbers and enjoy the music! Note: Some melodies have been changed and simplified for a diatonic range. Christmas songs are a unique music genre traditionally associated with the celebration of Christmas. They can be divided into several categories, including carols, hymns, and secular songs. Regardless of the specific type, Christmas songs are an important part of the holiday season for many people and are often enjoyed by families and friends as they come together to celebrate the occasion. This e-book includes 43 Christmasand gospel songs: Away in a Manger Christ Was Born on Christmas Day Desk the Halls Go, Tell It on the Mountain Jingle Bells Jolly Old Saint Nicholas Joy to the World!

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 letters representing the name of the notes. Under the engraved letter (or above the number), you can find one or two dots. These dots represent the octave above the center octave. I also put dots under the letters in the sheet music if they use an octave other than the main kalimba octave. 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. 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. 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. The e-book has two parts. The first one contents folk songs, the second one has popular hymns and spirituals. Table of contents Part 1.
