We discover quavers, dotted rhythms and two-note chords, as well as sharps, flats and naturals. The remaining bass notes aze introduced through a series of carefully graded melodies. We then move on to a few higher notes, combined with some simple position changing. ‘Throughout the book, many pieces can be combined as duets or ensemble items. There are also many exciting solo pieces, and strummed chords may be used to accompany several of them. Phrase marks are omitted for the sake of clarity, but may be added according to personal preference. To all those who have helped us during our journey along "The Way" with their interest and suggestions, we give our special thanks. ‘We hope you continue to have lots of fun in this exciting adventure ..
