Book excerpt: This book is designed for absolute beginner musicians who want to start playing popular melodies. All song melodies in this book feature numbers written instead of the traditional music score system, making it accessible for absolute beginners who cannot read sheet music. You can play by number if you're not familiar with musical notes. Numbers are used because most modern tongue drums have the numbers engraved or painted on their keys. In tongue drums with numbered musical notation, numbers 1 to 7 represent the keys of the diatonic major scale. Dots above or below the numbers indicate notes from higher or lower octaves, respectively. Your drum can be numbered from 1 to 8, where 8 corresponds to the note C of the next octave. For simplicity, we marked the note C of the next octave as 1 with a dot above it, as this is the convention used by most popular tongue drum models. It's important to note that the circles do not represent semi-tones. Each circle on the sheet corresponds to a specific note number, matching a key on your tongue drum. The duration of the notes is shown by the parentheses following the circles. The more parentheses after the circle, the longer the note's duration. Each tongue drum's sound scale varies significantly, making it impossible to tailor songs for every model in one book. Therefore, you might need to skip some songs if your drum lacks certain tones required for those pieces. Every page includes QR codes that link to the appropriate song. While these examples might not feature our simplified melodies, they help in understanding the melodies and rhythm.
