Songs of the Reef - Guitar TAB Edition

ByLisa Marie Gabriel

The TAB Edition of Songs of the Reef has a sea theme, led by the Octopus on the cover. Many thanks to Colin Mason, for the wonderful purple Octopus who even holds his guitar correctly! I call these Octo-Pieces because they explore octaves! Very young children often learn music happily through note names and Kodaly hand signals, coming to notation later. At this point the guitar offers bewildering choices. This was written as a fun way of getting children used to high and low versions of the same note! Song of the Reef contains easy to read large notation with note name noteheads and also TAB. I wanted to produce an attractive book for young guitarists at an early stage of reading and playing. The pieces are from grade 1 to grade 3 level. In the later pieces, higher notes and harmonics are added and special effects and dynamics are explored. I know my pupils like these pieces, my hope is that they will become a firm favourite with young guitarists of all ages, from 6-106!
