First Lessons Hammered Dulcimer

by Linda Thomas

First Lessons Hammered Dulcimer is designed to instruct beginning players on the instrument. The melodies in this collection include a variety of hymns, holiday music and fiddle tunes written in standard notation, with instructions on how to read the notation. Lyrics and suggested chords for accompanying instruments are also included. Includes access to online audio that offers two tracks for each a performance track with rhythm guitar and an instructional track with detailed phrase-by-phrase demonstration. The guided audio instruction at a slow tempo will prove invaluable for the "by ear" player. This method provides a "private lesson" approach for success on the hammered dulcimer.

Don’t waste your money!

Totally confusing! No explanations for locating C7, G7, etc., holding the hammers. I would not recommend this book to anyone! A total waste of my money.
