About this ebook
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, and C8 = red
