Sheet Music You Can Get For Free

I was just talking about the orchestra for hire website, now I have found a cool website for Free Sheet Music . It is called YokeWong.net, and you can hear clips or get sheet music for many songs right off of the site, FREE of charge. You all know I love free things!

If you are interested in learning to play the piano there is information on piano lessons and Sight Reading, so that you can learn to Read Music . I was looking on the home page and they have these cool YouTube clips of someone playing Greensleeves, like a live tutor right there on your computer. They also have a link to the sheet music for Greensleeves right there too so that you can try your hand at playing it at home.

I really do want to get piano lessons for my kids. I wonder if I showed them clips like these, or if I learned from the clips myself and then taught them, if they would pick it up. I know I am not always the best teacher in the world. My kids already love music and I think music appreciation is a wonderful thing to foster in children. I hope they pick up some instrument in their lifetime, I just hope it is not the drums until I can afford a sound proof room LOL!
