Progressive Harmonica Method For Young Beginners has been designed to introduce the younger student to the basics of harmonica playing and reading music.
To maximize the student’s enjoyment and interest, the Progressive Young Beginner series incorporates an extensive repertoire of well-known children’s songs. All the songs have been carefully graded into an easy-to-follow, lesson-by-lesson format, which assumes no prior knowledge of music or the harmonica by the student.
This book contains easy arrangements involving five notes (C, D, E, F and G). A combination of harmonica tablature and standard music notation is provided for each song. This will allow ease of playing while learning standard notation, incorporating quarter, half, dotted, and whole notes and their equivalent rests.
The student is also introduced to basic terms such as barlines, repeat signs, and lead-in notes. New pieces of information are highlighted by color boxes, and color illustrations are used throughout to stimulate and maintain the student’s interest.
