Fairest Lord Jesus on hammered dulcimer
Просмотров 3905 месяцев назад
For my students: My arrangement of an old familiar hymn, Fairest Lord Jesus. Played in the key of D. The first verse, I am playing on the bass bridge and on the right side of the treble bridge. Then I move it up an octave by playing it on the left side of the treble bridge and the right side of the treble bridge. Even if you’re playing background music at an event or service, add some variety t...
How Great Thou Art on hammered dulcimer
Просмотров 9065 месяцев назад
For my students: an example of how to embellish a song, by using your knowledge of chords. For this particular hymn, How Great Thou Art, you could play play a couple of verses in D, then, for the last verse, transpose it up to G to add energy to the song. In this video, for the sake of time, I have played one verse in D before moving it up to G, and added a tag at the end. Another thing to keep...
Irish Washerwoman

Irish Washerwoman on the Jim Trantham bowed psaltery. Mr. Trantham used to be the director of the Village of Yesteryear at the NC State Fair. He was also a luthier. Notice the beautifully carved dogwood flowers, which is the state flower of NC. This instrument is quite bright and lively! I got it well used; I cleaned the soundboard, polished the bridge rod and replaced all the strings. This son...

This is a slow version of Scotland the Brave on hammered dulcimer, for my students. Key of G.
The psaltery has been around since mediaeval times. The bowed psaltery is a recent instrument with no tradition. One should not refer to a bowed psaltery as just a psaltery, as that is misleading. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bowed_psaltery
Hi I am looking for a bow psaltery bow. Do you make them? If so how do i get in contact with you. If not do you recommend any brands? Thank you so much!
Is it possible to play trills? I want to compose a baroque like concert for that instrument and I am wondering if its able to play trills/mordents and similar...greetings from germany
Have you tried these techniques using a bow in each hand? You’d have to mount your Psaltery to a tripod, of course.

He was actually very tanned from working in the sun. Oh and his genes are middle eastern... so, fair is the wrong word.
Interesting comment. I am well aware that Jesus was a person of color. I agree, “fair” may be the wrong word for our modern English language. This German hymn was written in the 1660’s and translated into English in the 1800’s, when the word “fair” was more commonly used as a synonym for the word “beautiful.” A more accurate and modern translation of “Schonster Herr Jesus” is “Most Beautiful Lord Jesus.”
@@sghunter8994 Being pale was considered beautiful. They were already POS.
@@sghunter8994"Most Beautiful Lord Jesus" doesn't fit with the tune! But the musician played it beautifully!!! 🎶🎵🎶
Yeah wrong translation for fair friend... It's not in relation to color.
Beautifully done
Thank you!
I like how the 3rd one resonates through all the notes. The last one sounded nicer when u did the song closer to bottom of it. I appreciate your video. It helps me imagine how the music for the dedication of the walls of Jerusalem sounded. So pretty.🎉
The psaltery you built sounds and looks amazing.
Could you please refer me to the plans you used for building your psaltery? I would love to build one myself. Name of the magazine is enough, I'll dig further. Thanks!
Who are present 2023 builders / sellers?
Masterworks, James Jones, Song of the Wood, Westman Instruments, Rick Long, and also MusicMakers sells both a Psaltery and a Psaltery kit if you’d like to construct your own Psaltery. Some of these makers aren’t building large quantities of these so you may have to custom order a Psaltery. There also may be other builders that I don’t know about.
I really like the psaltery you built. The spacing between each string looks a bit wider than most, looks like you could pluck it easier like a lyre.
Good job!
Super!!!!
I recorded this in the Acapella program, and it sounded better played in that program. On youtube, it sounds very scratchy, sadly. Something happened in the conversion, I guess. Anyway, y’all get the idea!
Wow! You received a comment from Gregg Schneeman! What a great video! I hope to see more!
I think the BP you built sounded/recorded the best, I hope to hear you play it more!
Great tutorial!
Ah beautiful! Great instrument. Works well with this melody!
