The early 1900s was a pivotal time in popular music. It was the era of ragtime, jazz, and blues dance tunes. This period introduced improvisation and syncopated rhythms that had an impact on all types of music. The era welcomed such great composers as Irving Berlin, Gus Kahn, Billy Rose, George and Ira Gershwin, to name a few. This amazing book (from none other than Dana Gruber!) has sixteen great songs, all representative of this illustrious period in American musical history. The songs are all arranged for chromatic dulcimer solo, and are challenging, but not excessively difficult. All songs are in DAD tuning, and no capo is required. 39 pages. This book is published by Folkcraft® Instruments, under the Fingers Of Steel ® imprint. Songs included: Alexander's Ragtime Band - Composed by: Irving Berlin Always - Composed by: Irving Berlin Baby Face - Composed by Benny Davis And Harry Akst Blue Skies - Composed by: Irving Berlin By The Beautiful Sea - Composed by: Harold Atteridge And Harry Carroll Bye Bye Blackbird - Composed by: Mort Dixon And Ray Henderson Carolina In The Morning - Composed by: Gus Kahn And Walter Donaldson The Charleston - Composed by Cecil Mack And Jimmy Johnson I'll See You In My Dreams - Composed by Gus Kahn And Isham Jones It Had To Be You - Composed by: Gus Kahn And Isham Jones Ragtime Cowboy Joe - Composed by: Lewis F.

This book includes selections chosen to celebrate the quiet joys and consolations of the winter season. The mountain dulcimer arrangements range from well-loved seasonal favorites to less familiar carols from a wide range of traditions, including European carols, Shaker music, shape-note tunes, and spirituals. Within the book, each tune is presented in at least two different versions ("variations"): the first version of each set presents a simple arrangement for less-experienced players; subsequent versions increase in complexity and more closely resemble Nina's recorded arrangements. The book also includes a background section, with history of the tunes, lyrics, and helpful playing tips. Tuning mostly DAD (some with capo), and some DGD. 76 pages. Songs included: O Come, O Come Emmanuel (3 versions) 'Twas In the Moon of Wintertime (3 versions) The Angel Gabriel (3 versions) What Child Is This (3 versions) In the Bleak Midwinter (4 versions) When Christ Was Of A Virgin Born (3 versions) Once in Royal David's City (3 versions) Rise Up, Shepherds And Follow (3 versions) Go Tell It On The Mountain (3 versions) The Friendly Beasts (4 versions) Come, All Ye Shepherds (3 versions) Children Of The Heavenly Father (4 versions) Infant Holy, Infant Lowly (3 versions) Tu Scendi Dalle Stella (3 versions) Star In The East (3 versions) Cradle Hymn (Restoration) (2 versions) The Shepherd's Star (3 versions) Jesus, Jesus, Rest Your Head (3 versions) Silent Night (3 versions)

This mountain dulcimer chord chart is written specifically for a diatonic three string baritone (tuned AEA) mountain dulcimer. Our chart includes 42 of the most commonly used chords - pretty much everything you can get from a diatonic mountain dulcimer with the 1.5 and 6.5 frets added. And that's only the FRONT of this two-page, laminated chord chart. The back tells you the actual notes used to create the chords. Examples: A Major = A, C#, E and F = F, A, C. The back also includes a handy diagram that shows the first 10 frets, with the notes created on each string, at each fret. If you want to play chords on your diatonic baritone mountain dulcimer, then you're going to want this chart. You could probably figure this all out yourself, but this chart will save you a LOT of time and effort, giving you more time to make music on your dulcimer.

Have you ever dreamed of building a fine musical instrument, but don't have the time (or the tools) to prepare the wood for assembly? We can help you fulfill your dream with our Folkcraft chromatic black walnut dulcimer kit! Folkcraft hourglass dulcimer kits are ready to assemble. All of the hardware (machine heads, nut, bridge, anchor pins, strings) is included; the sides are already bent; the scroll head is shaped, routed, and drilled; the chromatic fretboard is already fretted (by the same luthiers that build the world famous Folkcraft and FolkRoots dulcimers); the wood has all been sanded to at least 120 grit; and detailed instructions are included with every kit. You will need a few hand tools (a knife, a drill, a hammer, a screwdriver), sandpaper, and wood glue to assemble your hourglass dulcimer. For finishing, we recommend either polyurethane or a Danish oil. Folkcraft walnut dulcimer kits are enjoyed by hobbyists, and by recreational builders everywhere. Folkcraft dulcimer kits are sold (in large quantities, year after year) to professional dulcimer builders who assemble and finish the instruments themselves, selling the completed dulcimers at festivals and in their own shops. So whether you're looking to spend a few relaxing weekends building an heirloom instrument that will be treasured by your family for generations, or you're looking for a new business opportunity, you've found what you need - a Folkcraft hourglass dulcimer kit! This chromatic dulcimer kit features a fretboard with a 1 3/8" width, and a 25" VSL (scale length, or Vibrating String Length). We've installed the frets, and even installed genuine mother of pearl position dots at 3, 5, 7, 9, 12 (double), 15, 17, 19, 21, and 24 (double).

This set of Folkcraft brand dulcimer strings (mountain dulcimer string set) will keep your DAA-tuned mountain dulcimer sounding great. These ball end strings come in a set of three with the following gauges:.013,.015,.024RW. Strings in this set: Melody string:.013 Middle string:.015 Bass string:.024RW The "RW" stands for Roller-Wound. The roller wound strings have a steel core, with a brass winding. The brass winding has been flattened with rollers, creating a warm sound with very little string squeak. If you play your dulcimer set up with three strings (instead of four), then we're recommending these gauges - the balance across the strings is better for three-string players. (Some people take off the extra melody string of a four-string dulcimer string set, and play with 011,.013, and.024RW, but the slightly heavier gauges of our optimized three-string set are better for most players and most instruments.) This mountain dulcimer string set is the same set of strings that we use on the instruments we make in the Folkcraft wood shop.
