Now that you know all the notes, you’ll need to know how to use them. Everyone learning to play an instrument and to read music at the same time faces a dual challenge: - 1. how to remember which fingers go where, and 2. how to decipher the code of musical notation.
This vividly illustrated book and CD package is suitable for children aged between 5 and 11. To see the first few pages, click here.
What Note is That?
Like training wheels on a beginner’s bicycle, note names inside the note heads provide reassurance and prompting whilst children are learning other aspects of music such as rhythm and fingering
Clear fingering illustrations show how to play each new note.
Music theory is introduced in short, digestible chunks.
Colorful characters such as Ben the Bee and Ann the Ant personalize the information, encouraging children to engage with the notes the characters represent. © 2008 andrewscottmusic.com
26 Easy songs to play give a feeling of achievement very quickly.
To help kids learn faster and make learning even more fun, there is a CD containing a recording of every song and exercise in the book., 51 tracks in total . A backing band plays each piece twice - once with a recorder to demonstrate the tune, then a 2nd time without the recorder for them to play along with. Students can use the backing tracks as an accompaniment when they wish to play for family and friends. Tempos are slow, but lively, so they’ll find it easy to keep up and still be able to tap their foot. To listen to a sample song, George the Giraffe, click here.
Above all, the method is fun and enjoyable. Children will play as they learn, and learn as they play.
