Numbered Sheet Music with Worship Songs for 8-Note Tongue Drum: Gospel Songbook - Tongue Drum National Songs and Worship Songs

Helen Winter

Summary

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 number-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 number-coded notations have been added and complex notes 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.

The steel tongue drum and the handpan are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body.
You don't need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them. The primary purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world.
No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments.

For tongue drums that have numbered musical notation, numbers 1 to 7 represent the keys of the diatonic major scale. For example, a C Major scale would be:
1 =C (do), 2 =D (re), 3 = E (mi), 4= F (fa), 5 = G (sol), 6 = A (la), 7 =B (ti / si), 8 (i) = C (do)

Your drum can be numbered from 1 to 8, where 8 is note C of the next octave. I use the number 1 with a dot above the digit for this note because the most popular models of tongue drums use this enumeration.

All songs in this e-book have been written with numbers because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys.

This e-book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments, whether child or adult. It allows for simple and easy learning that requires no previous knowledge of reading music.
Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this e-book are possible to play in one octave.
You may need to skip some songs if you have less than one octave of keys on your drum. Each tongue drum is very different and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one e-book.

There are the following hymns and spirituals in this e-book:

Amazing Grace
Babylon's Falling
Be Still My Soul
Christ Was Born on Christmas Day

Lonesome Roads and Streets of...

Andrew S. Berish

Any listener knows the power of music to define a place, but few can describe the how or why of this phenomenon. In Lonesome Roads and Streets of Dreams: Place, Mobility, and Race in Jazz of the 1930s and ’40s, Andrew Berish attempts to right this wrong, showcasing how American jazz defined a culture particularly preoccupied with place. By analyzing both the performances and cultural context of leading jazz figures, including the many famous venues where they played, Berish bridges two dominant scholarly approaches to the genre, offering not only a new reading of swing era jazz but an entirely new framework for musical analysis in general, one that examines how the geographical realities of daily life can be transformed into musical sound.  Focusing on white bandleader Jan Garber, black bandleader Duke Ellington, white saxophonist Charlie Barnet, and black guitarist Charlie Christian, as well as traveling from Catalina Island to Manhattan to Oklahoma City, Lonesome Roads and Streets of Dreams depicts not only a geography of race but how this geography was disrupted, how these musicians crossed physical and racial boundaries—from black to white, South to North, and rural to urban—and how they found expression for these movements in the insistent music they were creating.

Life on the Victorian Stage -...

Nell Darby

The expansion of the press in Victorian Britain meant more pages to be filled, and more stories to be found. Life on the Victorian Stage: Theatrical Gossip looks at how the everyday lives of Victorian performers and managers were used for such a purpose, with the British newspapers covering the good, the bad and the ugly side of life on the stage during the nineteenth century. Viewed through the prism of Victorian newspapers, and in particular through their gossip columns, this book looks at the perils facing actors from financial disasters or insecurity to stalking, from libel cases to criminal trials and offers an alternative view of the Victorian theatrical profession.This thoroughly researched and entertaining study looks at how the Victorian press covered the theatrical profession and, in particular, how it covered the misfortunes actors faced. It shows how the development of gossip columns and papers specializing in theater coverage enabled fans to gain an insight into their favorite performers lives that broke down the public-private divide of the stage and helped to create a very modern celebrity culture.The book looks at how technological developments enabled the press to expose the behavior of actors overseas, such as when actor Fred Solomon's' bigamy in America was revealed. It looks at the pressures facing actors, which could lead to suicide, and the impact of the 1857 Matrimonial Causes Act on what the newspapers covered, with theatrical divorce cases coming to form a significant part of their coverage in the latter half of the nineteenth century. Other major events, from theater disasters to the murder of actor William Terriss, are explored within the context of press reportage and its impact. The lives of those in the theatrical profession are put into their wider social context to explore how they lived, and how they were perceived by press and public in Victorian Britain.
