Playing By Ear III

Were you able to find all the notes? You should have something that sounds like this:

---------------------------0-0-
-0-------0-0-0-X---------0-----
---2-0-2---------2-2-2-X-------
-------------------------------
-------------------------------

(If you tap your foot once for each note, the Xs are where you tap and don't play anything)

Did you get it? If not you should go back to the scale and play it while singing or humming along. Then try again.

Let's try another one. Let's do Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star, same melody as the alphabet song. This is a good one to do next because, unlike Mary Had a Little Lamb where each note was right next to the following note on the scale, this one has a big jump or interval, where 2 of the notes are pretty far apart.

So go ahead and see if you can pick this one out. Again you'll only be using the notes on the scale you've been practicing.
