The "dots" are only provided so readers can join in with the band without having learned the melody. Dots on a page are only a vague visual representation of the music. Please don't ever worry if you have not had the inclination to "read music" because music is not something you read. It is something you hear, feel, interpret and reproduce yourself on your instrument in your own unique way. If you would like to learn in the classes and play in the sessions - click in contents strip for the various days and times. I will send you the zoom link when you contact me. Join the band on Tuesday and Thursday mornings on zoom at 9.10 am for our morning assembly Jan-April 2021. Click here for morning assembly timetable of tunes. |
