Our sheet music is not for a specific xylophone, but it is universal and suitable for most 8-25 note xylophones. This book is aimed at those new to music and musical instruments, whether child or adult. It allows for simple and easy learning that requires no previous knowledge of reading music. The letter notation makes it possible for you or your kids to confidently begin playing. Our other books make it easy to play the xylophone with colored circle/letter notation. This book, however, includes classic note symbols so that students can begin to learn the reading of musical notes, including a musical notation showing note length, connection, etc. Most songs in this sheet music book can be played within one octave on the xylophone using only 8 notes. Several songs need 1.5 or 2 octaves or a 10-15note xylophone. This percussion instrument develops not only a musical ear, but also gross and fine motor skills, and cognitive skills such as letter recognition, matching, and patterns. Attention: Songs have been transposed for a DIATONIC range. Some melodies might be changed and simplified. If you have flat keys on your instrument, please use the classic music score for the piano.

Need some experience...
This book is pretty good but you need to understand note values to play the songs correctly. The first song has eighth notes so if you do not understand the difference between the note values you may have some trouble. They do not explain it either. This book is good if you have some experience reading notes.
