Not-so-new players will enjoy learning new songs at their current skill levels. Intermediate players will benefit from learning to play in 3rd Position to broaden their options while performing. Players at a more advanced level will learn to play in minor keysâ'a challenge for harmonica players, but less difficult in 3rd Position.

These songs also provide valuable licks to help develop your own improvisational vocabulary. 4) An overview of music theory to help you understand what's technically going on. (This is at the end of the book, so it's not required in order to play the examples.) 5) A chapter for the more advanced players to learn how to play the lower octave of the harmonica in 3rd Position (requires good bending skills).

Media Type : Book Level : Beginning Musical Genre : All Styles Number of pages : 48 Piano students of Latin American heritage often do not relate to the folk tunes that most methods use because the majority of those melodies do not flow with the rhythm of the Spanish language. This method is based on melodies original to the Mexican culture. These children's songs flow more naturally with the language, and in accord with the Kodály method of music education, give a better foundation for teaching basic musical elements in a Spanish language culture. Coupled with constant work on sight-reading, this new method is a valuable tool for native Spanish speakers in learning to play the piano, and will serve as a helpful and interesting supplement to English speaking students. Muchas veces los alumnos de piano de herencia latina no se identifican con la música folklórica utilizado en los métodos de piano porque la mayoría de las melodías no fluyen con el ritmo del español. Este método está basado en melodías originales de la cultura mexicana. Estos cantos de niños fluyen con más naturalidad con el idioma, y de acuerdo al método Kodály de la educación musical, dan un mejor fundamento para la enseñanza de elementos musicales básicos en una cultura de habla hispana. Junto con un trabajo constante de la lectura a primera vista, este nuevo método es un instrumento valioso para que aquellos cuya lengua materna es el español aprendan a tocar el piano con más facilidad, y servirá como un suplemento benéfico e interesante a los estudiantes de habla inglesa.
