INTERMEDIATE MUSIC
Welcome to the intermediate webpage!
To help you keep track of what I have updated, I will list some things here:
I have just created two new sections on this website.
There is now a section called "Ear Training." In this section, I will post videos and activities to help you learn songs, melodies, and rhythms by ear.
I have also created a section called "Piano and Other Instruments." If you already play other instruments, try to play some of the songs and ideas I suggest there!
In the ukulele section, I have added these new videos and downloadable songsheets:
Lean On Me
Riptide
Count On Me
Over The Rainbow/What A Wonderful World
Ocean Eyes (Billie Eilish)
How to tune a ukulele by ear
In the guitar section, I have put up the following videos and downloadable sheets:
How to Read Guitar Tablature
Mary Had a Little Lamb/Smoke On the Water
Chasing Cars, My Best Friend's Girl, Daytripper, Jeopardy Theme
Seven Nation Army, Shape of You, Twinkle Twinkle, Don't Let Me Down
Stand By Me, Happy Birthday
How to tune a guitar by ear
Electric Avenue (strumming chords)
For What It's Worth (strumming chords)
In the primary section (you might be interested in this!!! Rediscover your "young inner child!!), you can check out videos on:
How to make your own instruments (you can take what I've done and add your own sophisticated flourishes!)
I Can See Clearly Now
Funkytown

For those of you who are interested, I will be putting up songs in the section called "Recorders." So, check that out if you want to dust off that recorder! I will be putting up some challenging tunes very soon for those that want the challenge.
I have started putting up some activities in the section called "Percussion." Check it out if you want to play along to the beat of a song!
And, of course, check out the "Song Lyrics" section! I will periodically be putting up lyrics to fun songs to sing. You can always seek out song lyrics on your own, but I will putting some up as well! It's very therapeutic to sing... don't be shy!!!
