Go Tell Aunt Rhody Piano Easy Music Key of a
Go Tell Aunt Rhody
Lyrics & Sheet Music
"Go Tell Aunt Rhody" is a very well-known old song that is found in a lot of beginning musician books. Why?
An important song for beginners
This song doesn't stray far with its melody notes, staying inside the reach of the five fingers (for piano), or the easiest beginner notes, for other instruments.
Please scroll down the page for the download links.
Be sure to point out the "C" and "G" symbols above the melody lines... I like to check that my student remembers the purpose of the chord symbols by asking them, "What's this for?" or "What does this C mean?"
Concerning lyrics for modern children?
What about these sad lyrics that mention the dead goose?
Well, some kids won't even really notice, but you might comfort those who seem concerned about the goose by telling them that the feathers and down were traditionally (and even to this day) highly prized for pillows and comforters! So that when a goose died of old age, it still could be a part of the family, in a way.
Even easier - a few lettered notes
Please scroll down the page for the download links.
A pretty 2-hand arrangement
Here is a piano arrangement for progressing beginners, with moving left hand notes that do not follow a pattern: the hardest kind of left hand for young students, I think!
But the harmony is pretty:
Part of the Suzuki violin repertoire
Beginning violin students play this song - by ear! - but note-reading students who come from another instrument, and another method, will find sheet music for the tune handy:
Please scroll down the page for the download links.
If you are both a pianist and a violinist, you will notice that the melody is simplified for violin in the second line, avoiding a movement of a third for beginning fiddle players...
