This e-book aims to help beginners play the saxophone. The e-book includes 33 saxophone diagrams with fingering positions and staff notation and 33 illustrations of the fingering location on the saxophone itself. The musical notes cover almost 3 octaves from A#3 to F#6. The most popular types of saxophones are alto, tenor, soprano, and baritone. These fingering charts are suitable for all of them. Here are the primary fingerings (basic charts). This e-book does not include the altissimo and trill fingerings. You can print and cut out the charts to use them as flash cards or mount them on a wall like 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 (16x25 cm). I hope these fingering charts will be a valuable visual aid for you.

This e-book aims to help beginners play the trumpet. The e-book includes 31 trumpet diagrams with fingering positions, along with pitch names and staff notations. Each note here has its own page in the e-book. The musical notes in this e-book cover almost 3 octaves from A#4 to C6. The sounds produced by the trumpet are a part of many forms of music, from jazz to classical. While modern trumpets have three piston or rotary valves, early trumpets had none. The purpose of the valves is to lengthen the tubing when engaged, allowing a lower pitch. By adding lengths of tubing to the trumpet, each valve performs a different function. The first valve lowers the pitch by two semitones, while the second and third lower it by a semitone and three semitones, respectively. When up, the trumpet valve allows air to pass straight through, but when pressed, a section of tubing is opened. In order to take full advantage of the sounds that can be produced, the valves play a key role.

Trill is a musical embellishment you can use in songs and melodies. Trill is defined as a fast movement between 2 notes. Normally the movement is between the note that you want to trill from and the next note directly above it in the given scale. Here you will find 65 trill fingerings from the note A of the 3rd octave to Gb of the 7th octave. These fingerings are identical on all types of saxophone (soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, and bass) unless otherwise noted, and they are designed for the rapid alternation between two notes that are, as mentioned above, a semitone or a whole tone apart. Keys to be trilled are indicated by a red arrow. Please remember that when multiple keys are to be trilled, the keys should be pressed and released simultaneously. But some fingerings have an alternate pressing and releasing of the keys. Please note the notation under the fingerings.

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.

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 aims to help beginners play soprano recorder simply and easily. The e-book includes 46 brightly colored pictures with fingering positions for the soprano recorder, with pitch names and staff notations. The musical notes included are: C C#/Db D D#/Eb E F F# G G#/Ab A A#/Bb B C D E F F# G Low B has 2 alternate fingerings, which are the same for both Baroque and German recorders. Low F, Low F#, High F, and High F# have different fingering for Baroque and German recorders. These charts are suitable for both popular styles of a soprano recorder. 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). This is an almost life-size recorder fingering chart and each note here receives its own piece of paper. You can post these cut-outs on the wall or use them as you like. One side of the poster shows the connection between the dots and their fingering, and the reverse side depicts the same fingering scheme shown on a pipe with numbered holes. You or your child will choose the style that is more understandable and comfortable.

This e-book aims to help beginners play the trombone. Like all brass instruments, the trombone changes pitch when the physical length of the tubing the air passes through changes. The trombone has a special extendable slide that functions as the valves do on other brass instruments. The trombone changes length when the player extends the main slide. When the slide gets longer, the pitch goes lower. The e-book includes 32 trombone diagrams with fingering positions, along with pitch names and staff notations. Each note here has its own page in the e-book. The musical notes in this e-book cover almost 3 octaves from E2 to B4. The trombone’s slide has seven positions: the 1st position is when the slide is pulled closest to you and 7th is when it is fully extended. However, the slide has no markers indicating these positions. On each page, the slide position in red corresponds to the particular note depicted. When there are two red numbers for the same note, it means that there are two variations for the slide position to create that note. I hope these fingering charts will be a valuable visual aid for you.

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.

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. List of the songs adapted for the Kalimba: Part 1 Skip, Skip, Skip to My Lou Humpty Dumpty My Hat I like to Eat (Apples and Bananas) Cobbler, Mend My Shoe Lost My Gold Ring This Old Man Baby Bumble Bee The Bear Went Over the Mountain Cherry Blossom Ring Around the Rosie Rain, Rain, Go Away A Ram Sam Sam Little Jack Horner It’s Raining Au Clair de la Lune Debka Hora My Bonnie House of the Rising Sun Part 2 Baa Baa Black Sheep Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star Alphabet Song.

There are two volumes of my songbook. I present the easiest songs in the first volume and the slightly more advanced songs in the second. You, your kids, or your 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 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 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 List of Songs A la Ronda Ronda Acka Backa Apple, Apple on the Tree Are You Sleeping?

This e-book is for kids or adults who are absolute beginners in music. I tried to write it as simply as possible. I use an “easy-to-play” visual aid so any beginner can play music quickly. No previous knowledge is necessary. Every song has a large and simple 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 are 22 songs and 2 options to help children begin to play right away. PLAYING BY LETTER CIRCLE 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 e-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. 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 - Version 1 - CIRCLES Hot Cross Buns - Version 1 - NOTES Hot Cross Buns - Version 2 - NOTES (Here, the player will play songs in a different key and learn how 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 beginning of this e-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 e-book is addressed to newcomers to the recorder instrument. Also, it is a perfect self-training guide for children and beginner adults to mastering the challenges of flute or recorder.

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. Songs: Hot Cross Buns Are you sleeping? Mary had a Little Lamb The wheels on the Bus Twinkle.

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.

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.

This learning sheet music will be most useful for the instrument with the color scheme below: C = red, D = orange, E = yellow, F = green, G = light blue, A = white, B = violet, and C8 = red 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? London Bridge is Falling Down Jingle Bells We wish you a Merry Christmas Brahm’s Lullaby Ode to Joy Happy Birthday Le Cucaracha Oh! Susannah Beethoven – For Elise Silent Night Yankee Doodle Row, row, row your Boat Jolly Old Saint Nicholas. There are simple popular songs: kids learning (ABC), sleeping, Christian, church, animals. The second part of the book has the “Three Little Pigs” fairy tale with a musical score. I offer a lot of activities that can be done with any percussion instrument or any sound made with home utensils, for example, while listening to the story. This fairy tale encourages a child’s musical activity, even if they have never played music before. German composer Orff believed that each child should not be a passive listener, but an active co-creator. Not only can you and your kids play using a percussion instrument musical set, but also with any other musical sounds you can come up with. I hope you’ll enjoy these funny kids’ songs and percussion music actions and activities.
