Tongue drum music book - 50 relaxing, yoga and meditation songs - reading music notes not required: For diatonic tongue drums in D major with 8 / 11 / ... - playing by numbers with the tongue drum

"Reading music notes not necessary", yet there is no explanation to why notes such as labeled as 5 in different positions on the stave or why there is a curve joining notes together. Disappointing. Only gave 2 stars because there's a lot of songs but I feel not fit for purpose because of no explanation. I would have included a photograph but Amazon keeps restarting the review from scratch.

VERY GOOD BOOK

Looks and sounds nice, but I lost interest. The book is helpful but you would need to add instruction if you get serious about it.

I bought two of these books, the meditation songs and the 60, 70, 80s ect. I am so happy. They have great songs. These books have notes and numbers so I will learn the notes too. I wish they still sold the drums on Amazon, I would have bought it to go with the books. Also it is the size of a real music book not like the others where you have to follow half on one line and the other half on the next line. These books are more like a standard music books. They also work with 8-16 note drums. This meditation one has beautiful melody's you don't even have to know the song. You can just play to the feel and know that it will sound good. It makes me so happy. I can't wait to play again tomorrow. My new octave drum will sound delicious with this meditation book. If they let me edit this review, and when I learn a song, I will do a video and show you how awesome this book makes you look like a professional.

You can play all these on an 8 note drum, if that's all you have then great, but otherwise its a complete waste of time
