Welcome
to Lesson Two from
"A FRESH APPROACH TO MALLET PERCUSSION"
by Mark Wessels!
This lesson will review how to
count quarter notes and rests in quarter time signatures,
plus teaches you how to measure distances on the
keyboard using HALF STEPS. Then,
you'll learn two new notes that you'll use in several
music reading
exercises: B flat and A
flat.
While you will be able to
view the music reading exercises on the screen,
it is extremely important to position the music
on the stand directly in front of the keys on your
keyboard!
A PDF of this lesson is available
for you to print for this purpose (Acrobat Reader
program required).
Complete
all of the written exercises first, THEN progress
to the music reading exercises!
