Organizing Songs in the Songbook

The Songbook resembles a real book — with Tabs for different sections. The songs in the Songbook can be arranged in four different ways — by Title, Style, Composer or Level of Difficulty.

Title Lists the songs in alphabetical order, by title.

Style Organizes the songs according to different styles: Classical, Folk, Holiday, Patriotic, Ragtime, and Traditional.

Composer Finds a song by a particular composer. When there is no known composer, the songs are listed by category such as American Folk Tune, French Carol, French Folk Tune, German Folk Tune, etc.

Difficulty Arranges the songs by difficulty — with the easiest listed first, the most difficult last. The order of songs in this Tab follows the order in which the songs are presented in the Keyboard Lessons.

In the Songbook, the Title and Difficulty sections list each song individually. The Style and Composer sections have categories where groups of individual songs are located.

In the Composer section, if the composer is anonymous, the song will be listed under the geographical area from which it originated.
