This book was written with beginners in mind. All songs were written with circles in the musical staff, and there are no stems or flags - only notes on the line - to keep it simple.
If you are a beginner, playing by note can be difficult. It is easier to follow color-coded circles with note letters.
Just by following the color circles, you will sound like an experienced musician.
Music bells create an amazing sound and there is no need to worry about being in tune or finger position.
The unique advantage of bell sets is the fact that each note is created by an individual bell, so the notes that are not used in a particular song can be removed and the student has a greater chance for success. A handbell orchestra acts as one
instrument, with each musician responsible for their particular notes, sounding their assigned bells whenever those notes appear in the music.
Give each participant one or two bells and ask them to join in a simple melody. Independently, whether the player has musical knowledge or not, the band will sound harmoniously with just a little bit of training.
The color of the bells or resonator blocks must be the same as the color of the bells below. Our color chromatic scale corresponds to the chakra system.
C low - red, D - orange, E - yellow, F - green, G - light blue, A - blue, B - violet, and C high - white.
Each chakra is said to vibrate at a different frequency and is associated with a particular color and particular music note.
There are two parts of our songbook. We present the traditional African songs in the first part and the African-American spirituals in the second.
