Self-Learning Music Curriculum
- Price: $19.95
- The Learning to Play Mountain Ocarinas music curriculum is a thorough introduction to reading music and playing Mountain Ocarinas.
- Curriculum consists of a 48-page 24-unit book and extensive online audio teaching that guides you through the book. (The audio files –which replace the former CDs– can be accessed online or downloaded.)
- Intended for adults with little or no musical background. Guides you step-by-step from sounding your first notes to where you are ready for books of folk songs, hymns, etc.
- Also appropriate for many children 6 & older. However, they usually require adult guidance, encouragement, and structure. With this curriculum, a teaching adult can learn at the same time as the child. Works well in a homeschooling environment.
