Welcome to Lesson Three from
"A FRESH APPROACH TO MALLET PERCUSSION"
by Mark Wessels!

This lesson introduces the HALF NOTE and HALF REST, as well as the new note G FLAT. You will also learn to measure distances from note to note using WHOLE STEPS.

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).

Print the lesson and complete all of the written exercises first, THEN progress to the music reading exercises!
