Psaltery
Michael made me a Psaltery a couple of years ago. In all this time we were not able to get it tuned, etc.
But when we went to Branson a couple of weeks ago, we went to the Cedar Creek Dulcimer shop and they helped us tune it, showed us what all we needed to do, how to rosin my bow,etc.
So now it is all ready to go and I am learning to play it. :)
So far I have only progressed as far as "Mary had a little lamb", but I have to start somewhere.
My goal is to be able to learn some 16th Century English songs as I am going to play it for Queen's Prize in January. That will be my entry.
I am not crazy about performing in front of a bunch of people, so we shall see how it goes.. Actually not crazy about it is an understatment. I am terrified!
But I really do enjoy the Psaltery and I have wanted one for years.
