{"product_id":"tongue-drum-songbook-for-beginner-play-simple-kids-songs-by-number","title":"Tongue Drum Songbook for Beginner: Play Simple Kids Songs by Number","description":"The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, hapi drum, mandala or lotus drum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body.\u003cbr\u003eYou don't need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them. The main purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNo previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. It is impossible to play them incorrectly. Anyone can play them: those who want to develop a good sense of rhythm and an ear for music, those who are seeking relaxation after a hard day at work, those who have always had an interest in learning how to play a musical instrument, and those who want to introduce something unusual into their lives and explore their inner selves. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is aimed at those who want to add popular melodies to their experimentation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAll songs in this book have been written without using the classic music score system because it is for absolute beginners who cannot read sheet music. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe use circles with numbers because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. We do not show the note duration -- we just group the circles closer to each other to show the rhythms. You can experiment with the duration on your own. Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this book are possible to play in one octave. This book includes very simple, popular children's and folk songs, but even well-known children's songs played on the drum will create an unusual magical sound.\u003cp\u003eAttention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, please use the classic music score for the piano.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRub-a-Dub-Dub\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Wheels on the Bus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiss Mary Mack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHappy Birthday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoggie Doggie\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMary Had a Little Lamb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh We Can Play on the Big Bass Drum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwinkle, Twinkle Little Star\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Hunting We Will Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKookaburra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOde to Joy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo You Know the Muffin Man?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOld Bald Eagle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLa Cucaracha\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Sailor Went to Sea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAre You Sleeping?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Mulberry Bush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOld McDonald\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBim Bum Biddy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLondon Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJingle Bells\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTinga Layo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eItsy Bitsy Spider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWe Wish You a Merry Christmas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrahms Lullaby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNinety-Nine Bottles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJolly Old Saint Nicholas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh Susannah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRow Row Your Boat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcka Backa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHot Cross Buns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBell Horses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"Helen Winter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47279387640044,"sku":"9798681814832","price":16.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/1791\/3068\/files\/9798681814832.jpg?v=1770263945","url":"https:\/\/intl.allstora.com\/products\/tongue-drum-songbook-for-beginner-play-simple-kids-songs-by-number","provider":"Allstora","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
