I Don't Read Music
This songbook includes 65 familiar and easy-to-play songs and melodies.
Most songs have been simplified and transposed for one octave.

About the Book
We call this series “I don’t read music” since we are targeting beginners of all ages: children, teens, parents, and grandparents.
Folk music traditionally is not learned from sheet music or notes. Instead, it is learned by repetition and 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.
