Exploring the Beauty - DVD

Picture
Exploring the Beauty
of the Appalachian Dulcimer
DVD -- 67 minutes - Level 2 (Nov/Int)
Produced by Homespun Music Instruction, Woodstock, NY


You've been playing the mountain dulcimer but you need a fresh, new approach that will bring your playing to a new level. Carol Walker has the perfect solution with her fingerstyle technique, “delicious” chord voicings, and beautiful song arrangements.

After covering the “nitty gritty stuff” - tuning (DAD), holding the instrument, fretting exercises - Carol starts you off with the old fiddle standard, Bile Them Cabbage Down. It’s almost unrecognizable, though, as she slows it way down and employs right hand fingerpicking and smooth fretting technique to give it a sweet, lyrical sound.

Learn how to add “power chords,” vibrato, slides, picking patterns, chord substitutions, the use of the capo, practice exercises, and other invaluable techniques to your dulcimer repertoire. You’ll learn gorgeous arrangements of Long, Long Ago; Wayfaring Stranger; The Milking Song and The Goodnight Song (from Isle of Man); and the beautiful American hymn, Simple Gifts.

Novices and accomplished dulcimer players alike will delight in Carol Walker’s unique 
approach to the traditional 3-string mountain dulcimer.

Dulcimer tablature and standard notation for every song are included.
