Standard notation
and a
simple alpha-numerical
tablature system
are used to present
this unusual
collection of pre-18th
Century tunes for
the standard
12/11-course
hammered dulcimer. Creating
a hybrid of folk
and classical
elements, Carol Koenig
has expanded the
repertoire of the
hammered dulcimer with
melodies from
France, Spain,
England, and Scotland.
The tunes are first
presented in a simple
melodic statement,
then in a more
complex harmonized
version. The author
insists that it is not
necessary to be an
outstanding sight reader
to make beautiful
music on the
hammered dulcimer, or
with this
book.
