Download or read book Big Color-Coded Kalimba Songbook for Absolute Beginners written by Helen Winter. This book was released on . Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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. We also put dots under the letters in the sheet music if they use an octave other than the main kalimba octave. In this book, we 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 our book doesn’t include stickers, we suggest making color-coded stickers yourself. This is very easy and you can do it with very small pieces of colored paper. Our sheet music is not for a specific kalimba but is universal and suitable for 8-17 note kalimbas. We made our 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 book has two parts. The first one contents folk songs, the second one has popular hymns and spirituals. Table of contents Part 1.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the enchanting world of kalimba music! Here’s everything you need to begin creating beautiful melodies. No prior musical experience or ability to read sheet music is necessary to start playing right away. Playing is as simple as following the numbers. Simple melodies for 8 - 17-key kalimba This sheet music is designed to be adaptable for any kalimba, whether you have a compact 8-note instrument or a larger 17-note version. Play right away with numbered notes Each circle on the sheet corresponds to a specific note number, matching each key on your kalimba. The duration of the notes is shown by the parentheses following the circles. The more parentheses after the circle, the longer the note's duration. A whole note has three parentheses, and the durations of other notes are illustrated in the accompanying picture. A dot after the note indicates an additional half-parenthesis duration. A dot above a note indicates a higher octave, as is common on kalimba keys. It's important to note that the circles do not represent semitones, as kalimbas are typically not tuned in semitones. Every page includes QR codes that link to the appropriate song. While these examples might not feature our simplified melodies, they help in understanding the melodies and rhythm. This songbook includes the following songs: Alabama Gal Alice the Camel All Join hands and Circle to the Left Animal Fair Barbara Polka Barnyard Song Bend and Stretch Big Clocks Bim Bum Biddy Bluebird Bought Me A Cat Buckeye Jim Cackle Cackle Mother Goose Camptown Races Chicken on a Fence Post Cock-A-Doodle-Doo Come Back Home My Little Chicks Creeping Creeping Little Flea The Crocodile Diddle Diddle Dumpling Do Your Ears Hang Low Elevator Song Finger Family Five Little Ducks Five Little Monkeys Five Little Speckled Frogs Frog Went A-Courtin' Georgie Porgie Go Tell Aunt Rhody Goosey, Goosey Gander Halloween Song Hickety Pickety My Black Hen I Go Up the Apple Tree I Love Little Kitty I Went to Visit a Farm One Day I'm A Little Teapot I'm A Nut Jig Jog Johnny Works With One Hammer Kangaroo Skippy Roo Ladybird, Ladybird Lazy Mary Lightly Row Li'l Liza Jane Little Sally Water My Hat My Paddle O Christmas Tree Oh How The Lovely Is The Evening Old Mother Hubbard One Elephant One Potato One Two Buckle My Shoe Peace Round See-Saw Margery Daw Simple Simon Soft Kitty Star Light Teddy Bear Ten Little Pigs The Cuckoo and the Donkey The Farmer in The Dell Land of The Silver Birch There Was A Crooked Man There Was A Princess Long Ago This Little Light of Mine This Little Pig Went to Market This Old Man Three Blue Pigeons Three Little Kittens Tommy Thumb Too Ra Loo ra Loo Ral Trees Grow Tall Two Little Blackbirds Sitting on a Hill Two Little Dicky Birds When Goldilocks Went to the House of the Bears Where Is Thumbkin?

Book excerpt: 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.

Book Synopsis The Easiest Songbook for Kalimba. 65 Songs without Musical Notes by : Helen Winter

Download or read book The Easiest Songbook for Kalimba. 65 Songs without Musical Notes written by Helen Winter. This book was released on . Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We call this series “I don’t read music” since we are 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. We believe in this method of teaching, which is easier and more enjoyable. This songbook includes 65 familiar and easy-to-play songs and melodies. Most songs have been simplified and transposed for one octave. So the songbook is suitable even for a diatonic 8-note kalimba in C-scale, and 10- or 17-note as well. Since this book is aimed at the absolute beginner without any knowledge of reading music, we do not use here the classical music staff and do not show the note duration. You can experiment with the duration on your own. We recommend finding each of these songs on YouTube and listening to the rhythm before beginning to play. Our sheet music is only a guide. The most important thing is to listen and repeat the recordings. If you are a beginner, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow number-coded circles in this songbook. By simply following the numbers, you will sound like an experienced musician.

Book Synopsis Kalimba. 20 Number-Coded African Songs for Absolute Beginners: Traditional Kalimba Rhythms by : Helen Winter

Download or read book Kalimba. 20 Number-Coded African Songs for Absolute Beginners: Traditional Kalimba Rhythms written by Helen Winter. This book was released on . Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 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 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 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.
