3.0 out of 5 stars Slightly disappointed!, August 2, 2006

By	Clay A. Oliver (Wichita, Kansas USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Alfred's Essentials of Music Theory: Note Naming Flash Cards (Cards)

This was a slight disappointment when I received the flash cards. I bought them to teach my eight year old daughter the musical notes. The flash cards had a note on one side for her to look at and a small one on the reverse for me to look at. The only problem is I don't know the notes either so when she guessed at the note I didn't know if it was right or not. I had to manually look up all 93 cards and write the answer on the back so I would know whether she was correct or not. Other than that I was happy with the product.

1.0 out of 5 stars The title "Flash Cards" is misleading, August 15, 2007

By	M. Schild (New York City) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Alfred's Essentials of Music Theory: Note Naming Flash Cards (Cards)

This packet is meant to be ordered with a book and used by a music teacher who already knows the notes. I was disappointed in the product.

3.0 out of 5 stars Alfred's Note Naming Flash Cards, May 25, 2008

By	L. Smart "smartlines" (Portland Oregon USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was disapointed in these flashcards. They have a lot of good information and are very easy to read. However, the way that the answers are presented on the reverse side, they can only be used with a student-teacher or student-music knowledgable person. The student can not check themselves, nor can a non-muscian parent use them to work with the student.
