Watch Me Play! A Self-guided Music Course for Children by Helen Winter Pdf

This book is for kids or adults who are absolute beginners in music. I tried to write it as simply as possible. That is why I use an "easy-to-play" visual aid so any beginner can play music quickly. 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. I 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.

Watch Me Play! - a Self-Guided Music Course for Children by Helen Winter Pdf

This book is for kids or adults who are absolute beginners in music. We tried to write it as simply as possible. That is why we use an "easy-to-play" visual aid so any beginner can play music quickly. 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 are totally 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 notation 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). We offer 22 one-hand piano songs. 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.

Keyboard for Beginner Adults. 55 Traditional African Songs: Play by Letter by Helen Winter Pdf

The African songs here are written using European notation, and we should understand 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 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, we 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.

Xylophone, Glockenspiel, Bells for Beginner Adults. 45 Traditional African Songs by Helen Winter Pdf

The xylophone is the most important traditional folk instrument on thecontinent, alongside the drum. Usually, African scales differ from Western ones. The African xylophonesmostly have 5, 6, or 7-note (pentatonic, hexatonic, heptatonic) scales, whileWestern instruments typically have a diatonic scale. Rhythm is the most distinguishing characteristic of African music and it alwaysprevails over the melody. The songs in this book have been adapted and can be played on all models of popular woodenxylophone, metal glockenspiel (metallophone), or resonator blocks. Even asimple 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 totheir 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 beenspecially transposed to a diatonic range to allow you to play them on themost popular models of xylophone, which normally do not have flat notes. This book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments and weput letter notation above the notes to make it possible for you to confidentlybegin playing. Since African music assumes improvisation and variation, we recommendusing this sheet music only as a guide. The most important thing is to listenand repeat the recordings linked to the QR code, so you can listen to therhythm before beginning to play. Contents Amawole. Song from Congo Askari Eee.

KALIMBA. Play by Letter by Helen Winter Pdf

This sheet music 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 calls 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.” Our 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 book might include only letters and it will be enough to begin to play, but we 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 the piano.

The Music Parents' Survival Guide by Amy Nathan Pdf

This book of parent-to-parent advice aims to encourage, support, and bolster the morale of one of music's most important back-up sections: music parents. Within these pages, more than 150 veteran music parents contribute their experiences, reflections, warnings, and helpful suggestions for how to walk the music-parenting tightrope: how to be supportive but not overbearing, and how to encourage excellence without becoming bogged down in frustration. Among those offering advice are the parents of several top musicians, including the mother of violinist Joshua Bell, the father of trumpeter Wynton Marsalis, the parents of cellist Alisa Weilerstein, and those of violinist Anne Akiko Meyers. The book also features advice from music educators and more than forty professional musicians, including Paula Robison, Sarah Chang, Anthony McGill, Jennifer Koh, Jonathan Biss, Toyin Spellman-Diaz, Marin Alsop, Christian McBride, Miguel Zenón, Stephanie Blythe, Lawrence Brownlee, Kelli O'Hara, as well as Joshua Bell, Alisa Weilerstein, Wynton Marsalis, Anne Akiko Meyers, and others. The topics they discuss span a wide range of issues faced by the parents of both instrumentalists and singers, from how to get started and encourage effective practice habits, to how to weather the rough spots, cope with the cost of music training, deal with college and career concerns, and help young musicians discover the role that music can play in their lives. The parents who speak here reach a unanimous and overwhelming conclusion that music parenting is well worth the effort, and the experiences that come with it - from sitting in on early lessons and watching their kids perform onstage to tagging along at music conventions as their youngsters try out instruments at exhibitors' booths - enrich family life with a unique joy in music.
