Downloading Free Ringtones, Motorola Phones 25

Posted on January 14, 2011 by Jennib And Friends

If you have a Motorola phone, which has only one ring tone, and you’d like to add several more, there are a few sites online where you can download as many as you like. Let’s take a look at how and where you can obtain free ringtones Motorola phones.


While some sites offer free ringtones; read the fine print. They offer anywhere from ten to fifteen complimentary ringtones; however, there is a fee of .99 per month to join. If you would like to download truly free ringtones, the best site available is mrtones.com. This site does not require a fee, and they offer a wide variety of free ringtones motorola phones, including: Rock; Pop; Dance; Classical; Latin; Jazz; Rap/Hip Hop; R&B/Soul; and more.


Once you have selected the ringtones, follow these steps to download them to your phone:


Make sure that your phone has a ringtone composer, also called “melody composer”. Not all phones have a ringtone composer.


Go to your phone’s Ringtone Composer. It is usually found in “Settings” or “Tone Settings”. For exact instructions for your phone, consult your owner’s manual on the manufacturer’s web site.


Press “New Tone” or “My Melodies”, then “Edit”, to edit the current melody (may not be required with some phones – just selecting “New Tone” may automatically put you in the edit mode in your ringtone composer).


Now, you need to get a “keypress sequence” compatible with your ringtone composer for the melody you want.


Typing the keypress sequence into your ringtone composer exactly as given on mrtones.com. Simply choose Motorola, and a list of ringtones will be displayed. Once you choose the ringtone, another page will come up with the sequence of numbers needed to be entered into your phone.


Once done, press the “ok” or “done” key in your ringtone composer and follow the instructions. Your ringtone composer should let you name, listen to and save your new ringtone.


Your new melody will be listed with your other ringtones.


Deleting a previously entered ringtone is usually best done by editing the ringtone in your ringtone composer and replacing the notes with a new melody.


For example, suppose to wish to download a Chopin ringtone, mrtones.com will provide the directions and sequence of numbers to be added to your phone. It is important to note, however, that you need to determine if your phone will support ringtones. There are particular sites you can find which will ask why type of phone you have to ensure it has the capability.


While there are many sites available to download free ringtones Motorola phones, it will take time and research to locate them.

Ukulele Chords: Learn To Play White Christmas 26

Posted on December 12, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

In this ukulele lesson you will learn to read easy tab notation. Even if you cannot read sheet music you will be able to read ukulele chords and melodies with this type of tabs. We will use the Christmas song White Christmas as a learning tool.


In sheet music you will find notes placed in a staff with five lines. The placement of the notes in the staff determines which note it is. However, the sheet music notation does not tell you how to play the note on your instrument, in this case, your ukulele. You will have to learn this by yourself.


Tablature notation, on the other hand, tells you how to place your fingers to play a melody or something else. Ukulele tabs show which frets to press down and which strings to play. As soon as you understand the system you can use it to play melodies and chords on your uke.


You can find a few different types of tablature notation on the Internet. In this lesson you will learn a form of ukulele tabs with numbers telling you which fret and string to play.


I suppose that you have tuned your ukulele in C. This means that you first string, that is the bottom string when you play, is tuned to an A, the second string is an E, the third string a C and the fourth string a G.


In the ukulele tab notation we will use all frets you are to press down on your ukulele is shown by two numbers. The first number tells you which fret to press down, the second number what string to play. Here is an example:


12 01


The first number pair tells you to press down the first fret on the second string. The second pair means that you shall play the first string without pressing down a fret. This is called to play an open string.


It is time to take a closer look at the song we will use to learn tab notation. I will write down the lyrics, one line at a time, and the ukulele chords you can use in the key of

Christmas Sheet Music – How to Re-harmonize Jingle Bells 25

Posted on November 23, 2010 by Jennib And Friends

Christmas Sheet Music is generally like every other kind of sheet music except for one thing; because of the well-known melodies it is more open to re-harmonization. What does that mean exactly? Well, simply by virtue of the fact that everyone knows the melody it’s easier for the piano accompanist to take more harmonic chances.


Christmas songs like Deck the Halls, Jingle Bells, Silent Night and Joy to the World are so entrenched in our consciousness that few people even have to think about the words or the melody. It just comes naturally for most of us, at least in western culture, to sing the lyrics and melodies without any thought at all.


That’s what makes it all the more fun for pianists who accompany carolers to take some really neat harmonic chances with the underlying chords. Generally speaking no matter what you do, and as long as you keep the beat going, no one’s going to get lost.


Christmas sheet music is very often notated with accompanying chord symbols to help pianists make good chord choices. Of course, the more talented the pianist the more interesting the choices. That’s why I like chord symbols on Christmas sheet music because, it gives me a general guide to follow and makes it easier to add more chords to the mix.


How is this done? Let’s take a song like Jingle Bells for example. If we’re in the key of F, the basic chord symbols at the chorus are as follows;


| F | | | | Bb | F | C7 | |

| F | | | | Bb | F | C7 | F |


Now, how would one approach re-harmonizing this very simple chord progression? Most jazz players would know the answer to that question but for everyone else the trick lies in something we call the 2-5-1 progression or II V I. This basically means that in front of every landing chord we can put a II V progression with the one (I) being the landing chord or destination chord.
