ROLLING HOME
A song of the England-Australian sailors. Usually only heard once on each trip when the anchor was heaved for the home trip to England.
These old cargo sailing ships sailed from English ports always EASTWARDS
with the wind: down to South Africa, round Cape of Good Hope, into the Southern Ocean and Roaring Forties, to South Australia and other Australian Ports, then home via NZ and the Cape Horn; bringing goods, convicts and settlers, returning with grain, wool and gold.

    Hello dear Zithergirl, I have listened to your playing but please excuse me, I don't like your playing with this additional background noise at all, it has nothing to do with the typical sound of a zither. I also play the zither and also with amplification, but I play everything myself, including the accompaniment without “live to track”. A good accompaniment includes additional basses which you can hear in my “Estermann Ländler” where I play the appropriate alternating basses with the Superklang playing aid and the right little finger. That's just a small comment, otherwise I admire your enthusiasm with your numerous videos.

      Hi Klemens, thanks for looking at my videos and I looked at your superior SOLO zither playing. I play with play along CDs but it is still my own music.I recorded and published albums with zither duets and Folksongs together with a girlfriend, both of us playing ZITHER, the play along Cds were produced at Proffi Studios(run by my sons).I also published the only English language teaching book.My aim was always to help people who don't speak German, live in countries where there are no zither teachers or players, to help BEGINNERS; my website is also a HELP page.

    Hallo liebe Zithergirl, ich habe mir dein Spiel angehört aber bitte Entschuldige, dein Spiel mit dieser zusätzlichen Geräuschkulisse gefällt mir ganz und gar nicht das hat mit dem typischen Klang einer Zither nichts mehr zu tun. Ich spiele auch Zither und auch mit Verstärkung aber ich spiele alles selbst auch die Begleitung ohne „live to track“. Zu einer guten Begleitung gehören zusätzliche Bässe die kannst du hören bei meinem "Estermann Ländler" da spiele ich mit der Spielhilfe Superklang und dem rechten kleinen Finger die passenden Wechselbässe. Das ist nur eine kleine Anmerkung, ansonsten bewundere ich deinen Elan mit deinen zahlreichen Videos.

    "Guitar thumb pick", not "ring".

    • @zithergirl
      @zithergirl 2 месяца назад

      Thanks for watching my video.It was made 12 years ago in my sons garage on a shoestring budget, to help people who don't speak German and live in countries where there are no zither players/teachers, like here in Australia. I know I showed a guitar pick just to start people off, in case they obtained a zither with no accessories. The thumb pick will give you an idea, but I could not play a whole piece with it. The zither is an instrument played mostly in Germany/Austria/Switzerland, so accessories are mostly sold only over there. Ourdays people are more likely to google or buy online, but knowing the correct name of what you want saves time and confusion. Therefore the zither is not played with a guitar pick.The correct German name is Zither Ring. Other translations for you :Zither accessories = Zither Zubehoer; zither string is Zither Saite, Zither pins = Stimm wirbel . Griffbrett/fret board; Mensur = length of fret board; stimmen = tuning, Tuner = Stimmgeraet, Tuning Fork = Stimmgabel, Tuning Key =Stimmschluessel. Cheers - zithergirl🙃down under

      @@zithergirl I live in England, although I was originally born and bred in Rome, Italy. I have been playing guitar for 45 years, most of them professionally, and I also play bass and a plethora of exotic stringed instruments (oud, bouzouki, Arab-Andalus mandole, sitar, banjo: I have a strong lifelong interest in Arabic, Indian and African music). The zither is such a beautiful instrument, but learning to play it seems a daunting task, with all the coordination between the fingers. Moreover, I have three small children, and the time to even practice my own instruments is so very limited. I followed your channel for quite a long time, just as an appreciator of zither music. I just love all your videos, performances and tutorials alike. They bring me an enormous degree of pleasure, and for a little bit make me forget the outside world. Keep up the excellent work, Ilse, I love it! What about you, which part of Germany (or Austria) do you come from, and how long have you been living in Australia for?

    Thanks for explaining it! Now tried it with one note melody. It will work well soon. Than want to try the second note. So far it is helpful that I played it with accordion and guitar too. It was like a dream to be able to play it with Zither. Now it is a good beginning and practice each day some time and feel it is getting better especially with chord strings. Which is not easy. Fingers are not used to it. But try it even if litte pains start on the top of the fingers and try to play notes as clear as possible with no disturbing sounds. It is a great Challenge.
