Book Synopsis The Miracle Dulcimer by : Natalie Buske Thomas
Download or read book The Miracle Dulcimer written by Natalie Buske Thomas and published by . This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Miracle Dulcimer" describes the instant-play method, how to get started with the dulcimer, tips on how to start a group for regularly playing music, personal stories, and a collection of 27 songs. The Miracle Dulcimer's 27 easy-play songs and instant-play method is ideal for individuals and groups who wish to play music but lack the skill or desire to learn. Natalie Buske Thomas, author of the Serena Wilcox Mysteries, created The Miracle Dulcimer Method when her mother was terminally ill, to enable her mother to instantly play music, without ever having played an instrument before and without any knowledge of how to read sheet music. The Miracle Dulcimer Method is a good option for anyone who wishes to play a real musical instrument (a mountain dulcimer, relatively inexpensive and can even be built from a kit) but lacks the ability or the desire to learn an instrument. This method is a wonderful solution for people with disabilities, special needs, and anyone who would benefit from music therapy. The instant-play method is also a great fit for playing music in groups, such as in church or community centers -- non musicians and children can play right away -- an excellent choice for fellowship and social events for people from all walks of life, mixed ages, and skill levels beginning with "never played an instrument before." Whether you are looking for a new option for a community group, seeking music therapy for yourself or a loved one, or you simply want to play music without the hassle of learning how, this book is for you!

Book Synopsis The Story of the Dulcimer by : Ralph Lee Smith
Download or read book The Story of the Dulcimer written by Ralph Lee Smith and published by Charles K. Wolfe Music. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps no instrument better represents the music of Appalachia than the fretted dulcimer. The instrument was no longer confined to back porches and local music halls when Jean Ritchie so melodically thrust herself and her dulcimer into the national limelight during the folk revival of the 1950s. But where did the dulcimer, known to exist in no other folk culture in the world, come from? In The Story of the Dulcimer, Ralph Lee Smith traces the dulcimer's beginnings back to European immigration to America in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. As German immigrants settled in Pennsylvania and Appalachia, they brought with them scheitholts, a type of northern European fretted zither. As German immigrants intermingled with English and Scotch-Irish immigrants, the scheitholt, which was customarily played to a slower tempo in German cultural music, began to be musically integrated into the faster tempos of English and Scotch-Irish ballads and folk songs. As Appalachia absorbed an increasing flow of English and Scotch-Irish immigrants and the musical traditions they brought with them, the scheitholt steadily evolved into an instrument that reflected this folk music amalgamation, and the modern dulcimer was born. In this second edition, Smith brings the dulcimer's history into the twenty-first century with a new preface and updates to the original edition. Copiously illustrated with images of both antique scheitholts and contemporary dulcimers, The Story of the Dulcimer is a testament to the enduring musical heritage of Appalachia and solves one of the region's musical mysteries.
