Playing the Psaltery Made Easy Vol I Jeffrey Allen Lambert

Publisher Marketing: This book will make playing the bowed psaltery easy! Lessons include reading the tablature, tuning, bowing techniques, holding the psaltery and some of my favorite Gospel, Christmas and Traditional folk songs. Personally I want to play the Psaltery in accompany with the mountain dulcimer. Therefore, I used the songs in my book, "Playing The Mountain Dulcimer Made Easy Vol I" book and arranged them to be played with the Psaltery. However, you do not have to combine these two books, this Psaltery Instruction Book is a stand alone project! If you want to play your Psaltery along with the mountain dulcimer, simply have the dulcimer player use the tablature in the "Playing The Mountain Dulcimer Made Easy Vol I" instruction book (they can play in either DAA or DAD tablature) and as they play you can join them with your Psaltery by playing in the key of "D." However, you do not have to combine these two books, this Psaltery Instruction Book is a stand alone project! I also included the Psaltery tablature for the Key of "C." It is easier to play the Psaltery in the Key of "C." . . so you can play your instrument in this "Easy" Key (accompanied by a guitar would be nice) and enjoy the sweet sound of this unique mountain instrument!
