KinderBach Patriotic Songs
Do you have a young child who wants to play songs on a piano keyboard right away? The KinderBach Patriotic Songs book helps eager students get started playing familiar tunes immediately.
Using a combination of the KinderBach step music reading method and playing by ear, the student can play songs he/she knows and loves with very little instruction.
The KinderBach Patriotic Songs are in PDF format so that you can print only the songs your little pianist is working on. They can mark or circle parts, sticker the beginning and the end, or color the pages, whatever they need to do. You can print the pages as many times as you need to.
The KinderBach Patriotic Songs come with accompaniment MP3 tracks by June Sawatzky. The audio music has demonstration and performance tracks for practice and performance of your child’s chosen songs. The songs are about 1 minute long, perfect for short attention spans, and yet they highlight the most familiar parts of the melody.
Your child will thoroughly enjoy performing the songs they sing all the time.
