Songs You Might Know

Here are some songs you might know using strings 1 and 2. Practice them slowly until they start to sound familiar. Each song includes a playing example of the melody (what’s written) as well as an accompaniment that you can play along with.

4. Mary Had a Little Lamb

5. Hot Cross Buns

6. Au Clair de la Lune

7. Frère Jacques- Easy

This first version is the easier way to play this song, using only notes you already know.

8. Frere Jacques- Hard

This second version is the harder way to play the song, using high A (1:5), which we haven’t technically learned yet. Play it with your pinky.
