Gospel Songs for Beginners","state","published","contactAuthorMethod","email","aboutText","

Usually, a guide for kalimba offers the possibility of playing by letter or by number, with letters being more common. The modern kalimba often has engraved numbers and letters representing the name of the notes. The numbered musical notation is a cipher notation system used mostly in Asia, including China.

In this book, we recommend playing by letter and/or color.

Even if the signs are not engraved on the keys, normally, however, each kalimba has letter-coded stickers included in the set.

Usually, they are not color-coded and since our book doesn’t include stickers, we suggest making color-coded stickers yourself or color the including stickers. This is very easy and you can do it with very small pieces of colored paper.

Our sheet music is not for a specific kalimba but is universal and suitable for 8-17 note kalimbas.

This book includes 35 gospel songs. Many spirituals \"sorrow songs\" are slow and melancholic and are ideally suitable for kalimba. We made our pictured sheet music as simple as possible, songs have been transposed for a diatonic range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. You’ll quickly begin to play by letter-coded circles.
