By http://youtube.com/artmusiclessons - Try to accomplish a number of simple goals by watching and listening Lesson 4 (3B) video of Classical Music ABC School for babies, infants, toddlers and any other age:

1. Follow melodic flow of the composition, performed by Pan flute, an ancient wind instrument, having simple pitch center for easy recognition of a melody by a baby

2. Note that lower end notes are played in the left speaker of a stereo field, and that these are octaves 3 and 4, labeled in Red 3, and Rose 4 of the onscreen keyboard

3. Note that higher pitch notes are played in the right speaker of a stereo field, and that these are octaves 5 and 6, labeled in Green 5, and Yellow 6 of the full 88 keys onscreen keyboard.

4. Note a Lion at about 30 sec time point of a video, his front left feet is at "Middle C" note of an 88 key piano. In the following lessons we will switch to a simpler 49 child keyboard, so, present one is an illustration of true middle position of a C4 Middle C note

5. Ask your child latter where Middle C is, when Lion time on screen is over

6. Keep attention of your child at a keyboard with a surprise: a bird frying over to join the class.

7. Note yourself that we keep minimal onscreen activities, so baby attention is concentrated on hearing and following classical music and lesson tasks

8. Compare this lesson with Lesson 3A, where the same composition is played by Piano, and low and high notes are not channel separated.

9. Also encourage your baby to compare panflute low and higher notes of its' dynamic range with low voice of a man and higher pitch of voman vocal in lesson 2

10. Try to remember the tune and sing it with your child/children

11. Try to listen till the end, but feel free to stop at any time

Each task is surely optional and is a lesson-in-itself, come back to watch this video again and advance with your active dedicated music hearing

This is lesson 4 (or 3B, or 2nd lesson of a series of lessons) aiming to provide illustrative low and high sound ABC to easy recognize and learn high and low tone of human hearing range of low octaves (bass) to 20,000 Hz (brilliance above 6000 KHz)

Note: To understand musical sound phonics of this lesson soundtrack is is important to have stereo output of your computer or TV sound card/board, also important is an ability to adjust the volume of left and right channel speakers, so, you can focus your child attention on either low pitch (in the left speaker) or higher tunes in the left channel. Another option is to have headphones, so, you can temporary remove one or another channel volume. However, experiment yourself first, so, you feel confident what are doing when presenting this lesson to children

Realise yourself that by asking your child to watch and listen to this video you are attempting to switch on realized active music hearing of your baby. This lesson is a background hearing for the following set of lessons where we will switch to tone recognition of other musical instruments, selected to be simpler for understanding by a child then a present Piano composition


Presented soundtrack is a Panflute play of Robert Schumann's Revierie Scn 15.7 Childhood scenes or Träumerei.

Composition history:

The "Träumerei", No. 7 of the set, is one of the most famous piano pieces ever written, which has been performed in myriad forms and transcriptions. It has been the favourite encore of several great pianists, including Vladimir Horowitz. Melodic and deceptively simple, the piece has been described as "complex" in its harmonic structure

Robert Schumann also known as Robert Alexander Schumann, (8 June 1810 -- 29 July 1856) was a German composer, aesthete and influential music critic.Schumann's published compositions were written exclusively for the piano until 1840; he later composed works for piano and orchestra; many lieder (songs for voice and piano); four symphonies; an opera; and other orchestral, choral, and chamber works. His writings about music appeared mostly in the Neue Zeitschrift für Musik (New Journal for Music), a Leipzig-based publication which he jointly founded.
Panflute history:
The pan flute or pan pipe (a panflute or panpipes) is an ancient musical instrument based on the principle of the closed tube, consisting usually of five or more pipes of gradually increasing length (and, at times, girth). The pan flute has long been popular as a folk instrument, and is considered the first mouth organ, ancestor of both the pipe organ and the harmonica. The pan flute is named for its association with the rustic Greek god Pan. The pipes of the pan flute are typically made from bamboo or giant cane; other materials used include wood, plastic, and metal.
