Jump Start Melodies is rated 3 out of 5 in the category music. Read and write reviews about Jump Start Melodies. Jump Start Melodies uses the Smply Music method which is based on the premise that everyone without exception is naturally musical. Traditional piano methods insist that beginning students learn to read music as the means of learning how to play. This removes the natural connection between the student and instrument – and commonly, it removes all the fun, too. In fact, expecting children to read music before they have learned how to play is like expecting them to read and spell before they have learned how to talk. In stark contrast to traditional methods, Simply Music temporarily delays music-reading and introduces a revolutionary, ‘playing-based’ approach – a vast array of unique concepts that unfold directly onto the keyboard and produce unprecedented results. With Simply Music, you experience the pleasure and satisfaction that comes from immediately playing a huge repertoire of great sounding music.
