If you have flat keys on your instrument, it is recommended that you use the classic sheet music for piano. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Here, we have collected only simplified diatonic melodies. However, if your drum has many sharp notes, you will need a book that contains chromatic songs.

If you have less than 1 octave of keys on your drum, you may need to skip some songs. The songs which have been collected in this book can be played on most drum models. Each tongue drum is very different and it is impossible to accommodate songs for all kinds of tongue drums in one book. Because most tongue drums include and are tuned to involve the notes of the main octave, all songs from this book are possible to play in one octave. This is great for the absolute beginner who cannot read sheet music. We use numbers above the classic notes because most modern tongue drums have numbers engraved or painted on their keys. This book is aimed at those who want to add popular melodies to their experimentation.

Anyone can play them: those who want to develop a good sense of rhythm and an ear for music, those who are seeking relaxation after a hard day at work, those who have always had an interest in learning how to play a musical instrument, and those who want to introduce something unusual into their lives and explore their inner selves. It is impossible to play them incorrectly. No previous training or skills are necessary to enjoy these fascinating instruments. The main purpose is relaxation, meditation, and traveling through your inner world. You don't need classical music training or knowledge of music theory to play them. The steel tongue drum (aka tong drum, tank drum, gluck-o-phone, Hapi drum, mandala, or lotus drum) and the handpan (aka hank drum, UFO drum, zen drum) are percussion musical instruments designed to help you focus on your feelings, sensations, and body.
