When you start learning woodwind instruments, picking easy songs is really important. They help you feel more confident and make learning more fun. Here are my top five song choices that are great for woodwind players:

1. "Hot Cross Buns"

   • This song is super simple with just three notes: B, A, and G. It’s perfect for beginners to get used to fingering.

2. "Mary Had a Little Lamb"

   • This song is catchy and has some repeating parts, making it easy to remember. It’s great for practicing smooth playing.

3. "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star"

   • This is a classic! It's not only simple but also a good way to practice playing softly and loudly.

4. "Ode to Joy"

   • This melody is well-known and fun to play. It lets beginners try to play with a little more feeling while focusing on the beat.

5. "When the Saints Go Marching In"

   • This song has a fun, happy feel, and it’s great for practicing slightly harder rhythms that are still easy to learn.

These songs have nice melodies and simple patterns, and you’ll often find them in beginner music books. Spend some time with these tunes, and you’ll see that they really help you improve your skills quickly! Happy playing!
