Sheet Music for the Magic Flute
For the Magic Flute we use the traditional notation method, which is most obvious, because a music stave is also shown on the display of the Magic Flute.
Besides sheet music, the download page also contains play-along mp3’s and MIDI files. It’s nice to play along with these and it helps you to learn to keep the beat. Of course, it’s even better if you can find a teacher at home.
Improvising
Improvisation is a way to create your own unique music, here and now, without having to think too much. It’s also a great way to express yourself. If you use the right scales on the Magic Flute with the play-along tracks for improvisation, in no time you’ll create music which can be very pleasant to listen to.
This can be done at a very early age – our youngest participants are around 4 years old. Improvisation is very good for mental development. Someone who can improvise music well is often able to cope well in daily life too.
Participants with a mental disability can easily learn this technique. On our download page you’ll find a number of professional play-along tracks. These tracks have been composed especially for My Breath My Music. Each track comes with information on which scale to use. Making music has never been this easy!
