Evening Bells

Hi GMC and welcome to the lesson :)

This is an old Russian traditional song, called 'Evening Bells'. I chose it since it has a beautiful and simple melody line in bass, and it's suitable for beginners. I remember that I learned this song in the second year of elementary music school.

The song has two parts, both of them have the identical melody line in bass, while the first one is played with chords, and the second one with arpeggios. The melody line is played with thumb, while other three fingers take care of the rest. I hope you like it, and let me know if you need any help. :)

Key signature: C Major

Time signature: 2/4

Tempo: 80 bpm

Have fun :)
