Conny Sommer - The Great Textbook for Kalimba & Sansula Melody

Playing Kalimba is fun! Played alone, it is a fine-sounding groove instrument that challenges the melodic-rhythmic instinct to play. In the ensemble she impresses with expressive melodies, sonorous arpeggios and rich-sounding chords. The Kalimbas and Sansulas of the 11-tone Melody series from Hokema combine these properties and simple, intuitive handling in an excellent way. The repertoire of this book, which is intended for both beginners and advanced players, offers a cross-section of the world of music. 50 specially arranged themes in different levels of difficulty, set alone, with an ensemble and/or vocals, are complemented by chord and rhythm exercises. Stylistically, they range from African-style groove pieces to classical melodies, folk and lullabies to world-famous evergreens of popular music.
All topics are presented in sheet music and tablature. The tablature enables the localization of pitches even without knowledge of musical notation. This book is supported by linked videos and the MP3 CD, which plays almost every note printed in the book. All arrangements are available in a slow learning version and a band version that reproduces the piece at the original tempo. Playalongs with kalimba and band tracks invite you to practice the kalimba part on the playback.
Like many other instrumentalists, the modern kalimba player works with different tunings in order to make optimal use of the tonal range of his instrument. This book presents ten moods, which are precisely described with detailed instructions. As a rule, only 1-2 notes are changed from one chapter to the next.
