The note D is written on the fourth line of the staff.
Play the note D with your third finger on the A string.
This is a whole note.
It lasts for four beats.
There is one whole note in one bar of * time.
This example uses whole notes, half notes and quarter notes. Remember to practice both naming the notes and counting as you play.
The note E is written in the fourth space of the staff.
This piece uses the note E along with the other notes you already know. Practice it slowly until you can play it easily and then gradually increase the tempo (speed) until you can play along with the recording.
