Kalimba. 37 Simple Songs from Around the World: Play by Number - Paperback

by Helen Winter (Author)

Music brings us together. We can better understand people from all corners of the world, in all their wonderful diversity.

We've gathered 37 different national songs adapted especially for kalimba including lyrics, classic sheet music, number-coded notation, and online audio tracks. The songbook is colorfully designed with national patterns. You will enjoy folk music, children's songs, hymns, popular melodies, and dances.
This book includes complete melodies as well as substantial segments of uncomplicated, famous traditional folk songs from 30 different countries. Their goal was to assist you in acquainting you, your kids, or students with the musical traditions of diverse nations and cultures.

This educational book will help you begin to play music simply and easily. If you are a beginner, playing by notes can be difficult. It is easier to play the finger piano by following numbers.

Our sheet music is not Tabs (specific sheet music for the kalimba) and it is not for a particular kalimba. Rather, it is universal and suitable for any 8-, 10- or 17-note kalimba or mbira.

This kalimba songbook with international songs includes notation, not only in numbers but also classic sheet music. Some melodies might have been changed and simplified to be played within one octave. If your thumb piano has flat keys, it is recommended that you use classic sheet music for the piano.
Also, we have added a QR code to all songs. You can follow the link and listen to the rhythm before beginning to play.
