Description: Have you ever seen a child light up when he gets a chance to play beautiful music? I sure have, and it’s wonderful! As a professional pianist, private piano instructor, and Director of Music for a Montessori Preschool, I have spent many years sharing my passion for music with children. Along the way, I have developed and taught a very unique and successful early childhood music program. World of Harmony Music is a music program like no other. Over the past 15 years, I have created books of sheet music for a beautiful little 15-stringed instrument called a zither or lap harp. Instrument NOT included! (Sorry to scream at you, but too many people don't seem to understand that part!) My books work with zithers made by Appalachian Spirit Folk Instruments, Music Maker, Melody Harp, T.K. O'Brien's, and Small World Toys. Please note that these sheets may not work with other zither brands, and definitely do NOT work with First Act or Hape Happy harps, as the size or tuning may be different. You could trim the edges of my books to fit First Act and Hape Happy Harps, but you may lose a couple of beginning or ending notes. If so, you could fill those in by hand on your cut sheets. Music Makers often have the word "Nepenenoyka" printed on them. All you do is slip the sheet music underneath the strings of the zither, and you simply pluck the string over each note on the sheet! Anyone can immediately play beautiful music, regardless of musical training or natural ability. It just couldn’t be easier! I’ve watched “children” ages 3 to 90+ enjoy playing this music, as it’s so much fun for everyone! The parents watching my classes have always enjoyed learning so much about music along with their children! I've also included various kinds of music from the diverse cultures of our world, making it easy to learn about our world's languages, cultures, and holidays through music! For many years, people have asked me to make this curriculum available to purchase separately from my classes. Finally, the time has come! Whether you’d like this music for your own enjoyment and education, you’d like to teach children of your own, or you’d like to teach your own classes to students of any age, this program will make that goal so easy and so much fun!This listing is for a copy of my companion duet book, World of Harmony Music; Child's Play Duets. This is a book of duet parts for every song in the popular Child's Play book! Grab a friend and a second zither, and have a ball playing music together! Playing duets is a great way to have a lot of fun playing music with another person, while learning more about reading music, counting the rhythms correctly, and learning to harmonize along with a melody. PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK unless you already have or are planning to buy Child's Play, which is the book of melody parts, and a second zither! These pieces are intended to be played on a second zither to accompany the Child's Play melodies. It contains the harmony parts ONLY for each of the following songs, all of which are also in Child's Play:AlouetteB-I-N-G-OCockadoodledooDeck the HallsDo Your Ears Hang Low?Five Little DucksFrere JacquesIf You’re Happy and You Know ItJingle BellsJoy to the WorldKookaburraLittle Bunny Foo FooI’m a Little TeapotLondon BridgeMy Bonnie Lies Over the OceanOh SusannaOld MacDonaldPop Goes the WeaselAll the Pretty Little HorsesRockabye BabyShe’ll Be Comin’ ‘Round the MountainShortnin’ BreadThe Bear Went Over the MountainThis Old ManThree Blind MiceTwinkle Twinkle / ABC SongWe Wish You a Merry ChristmasYankee Doodle Below is a list of all of my other books for these beautiful instruments, sold separately here on eBay:Fall / Winter (all classical pieces include composer information sheets):1812 Overture, Tchaikovsky • Minuets in G, No. 114 & 116, Anna Magdalena Bach NotebookMinuet in G, No. 116, Harmony Sheet • Did You Ever See a Mummy? • Blue Danube, Strauss, Jr. • Can-Can, Offenbach Habanera, Bizet • Swan Lake, Tchaikovsky • Piano Concerto No. 1, B flat, Tchaikovsky Turkey in the Straw • Oh Chanukah, Oh Chanukah • Chanukah Blessings, • Chanukah Blessings (Shecheyanu) • I Have a Little Dreidel • Sonatina, Opus 36, No. 3, 3rd Mvmt, Clementi • Child in the Manger (Morning Has Broken) • Hark, the Herald Angels Sing • Jingle Bells • Jolly Old St. Nicholas • Joy to the World • We Wish You a Merry Christmas Nutcracker – Chinese Dance, Overture, Russian Dance, and March, Tchaikovsky Winter / Spring (all classical pieces include composer information sheets): Eine Kleine Nacht Musik, Mozart • Fur Elise, Beethoven • We Shall Overcome, & sign language lesson • Hail to the Chief, lyrics list all U.S. presidents in chronological order • Happy Farmer, SchumannSerenade, Haydn • Surprise Symphony, Haydn • Humoresque, Dvorak • Iko Iko, • Irish Washerwoman • Chinese New Year Song • Dayeinu • Casey at the Bat • Take Me Out to the Ballgame • Spring, VivaldiLa Donna e Mobile, Verdi • Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2, Liszt • Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, Bach • Frere Jacques, presented in 9 languages • Teddy Bear’s Picnic • Ninth Symphony, Beethoven Wishing You A Merry Christmas:Silent Night • Bring a Torch Jeannette Isabella • God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen • The First Noel • Up on the Housetop • The Twelve Days of Christmas • What Child is This? • While Shepherds Watched Their FlocksDeck the Halls • Joy to the World • Auld Lang Syne • Hark the Herald Angels Sing • Christmas is Coming (the Goose is Getting Fat) • Over the River and Through the Woods • Good Christian Men Rejoice Good King Wenceslas • Jingle Bells • Jolly Old St. Nicholas • I Saw Three Ships • We Three Kings • Child in the Manger / Morning Has Broken • Nutcracker Suite Overture, Chinese Dance, Russian Dance, MarchThe Snow Lay on the Ground • Away in a Manger • Go Tell It on the Mountain • Holy Night • Oh Christmas Tree • Oh Come All Ye Faithful • We Wish You a Merry Christmas I Can Write Music, Too!
