Bourrée in E minor on kalimba
This website publishes the full reference melody as kalimba number tab you can read on screen or print for the stand, free. The website collection is separate from the app lesson catalog and makes no board-fit claim; Kalimba Studio: Tuner & Tabs names unavailable pieces after you choose 8, 10, 15, 17, or 21 keys.

How to practise this on kalimba
Use this website number tab as a notation reference: Bourrée in E minor is in Am and starts on A4, so locate that pitch on your own board before you begin. A dot above a number means play it one octave up; a line under it means two notes to the beat. This website collection is separate from the app lesson catalog and makes no board-fit claim.
Let each tine ring rather than damping it, and pluck with the corner of the nail for a clear tone. Start well under around 116 BPM, circle one short section, and repeat it until the plucking order is settled in your thumbs. Kalimba Studio: Tuner & Tabs evaluates its own lessons against your selected 8-, 10-, 15-, 17-, or 21-key board and names pieces that are unavailable. By the numbers, this setting runs 129 notes across 25 bars, from C4 up to E5 in 4/4 time.
