Beschreibung

This e-book is for kids or adults who are absolute beginners in music. I tried to write it as simply as possible. That is why I use an “easy-to-play” visual aid so any beginner can play music quickly.

Neither kids nor their parents have to read sheet music or have a musical background. No previous knowledge is necessary. None at all.

Every song has a large and simple, color and 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 is a total of 22 songs and 3 options to help children to begin to play right away.

PLAYING BY COLOR CIRCLE
PLAY BY LETTER
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 to 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.
For example:
Mary Had a Little Lamb - Ver 1 - Circles
Mary Had a Little Lamb - Ver 1 - 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 - Ver 1 - CIRCLES
Hot Cross Buns - Ver 1 - NOTES
Hot Cross Buns - Ver 2 - NOTES (Here the player will play songs in a different key and learn 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 end 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 any keyboard instrument (such as Piano or Synthesizer). I offer 22 one-hand piano songs.

Also, it is a perfect self-training guide for children and beginner adults to mastering the challenges of percussion instruments such as kalimba, marimba, xylophone, glockenspiel, or even color bell set.

    For fans of Jasmine Warga and Thanhhà Lại, this is a stunning novel in verse about a young Taiwanese immigrant to America who is confronted by the stark difference between dreams and reality. 
    Anna can’t wait to move to the beautiful country—the Chinese name for America. Although she’s only ever known life in Taiwan, she can’t help but brag about the move to her family and friends. 
    But the beautiful country isn’t anything like Anna pictured. Her family can only afford a cramped apartment, she’s bullied at school, and she struggles to understand a new language. On top of that, the restaurant that her parents poured their savings into is barely staying afloat. The version of America that Anna is experiencing is nothing like she imagined. How will she be able to make the beautiful country her home? 
    This lyrical and heartfelt story, inspired by the author’s own experiences, is about resilience, courage, and the struggle to make a place for yourself in the world.

    There is the whole world, and in it, there's a city, and in that city, there's a house, and in that house, there are two half-houses, and in one of those half-houses, there lives a pair of sisters named Stella and Marigold. Stella, who's seven, likes cats and axolotls and second grade. But most of all, she likes Marigold. Marigold, who's four, likes gibbons and red paint and the plumber. But most of all, she likes Stella.  
     
    Stella and Marigold do all the regular things—like going to school, playing with their friends, sometimes going to the zoo, and sometimes getting sick—but even the most regular things have a secret side. There's a secret that involves a blanket.  
     
    And another one about wolves, a terrible storm, and two brave children. That's a very exciting secret, and no one knows about it except Stella and Marigold. And—if you read this book—you!
