Awesome for Beginners, January 13, 2006
This review is from: You Can Teach Yourself Hammered Dulcimer (Paperback)
As an absolute beginner in learning the Hammered Dulcimer I looked at many books that were focused on the beginner... This is by far the best of the bunch... The primary thing that makes this book special is the way it links the courses on the dulcimer to the music itself... Other books seemed to forget that I don't know what strings play what note and am also new at sheet music... This book solved that by showing a diagram of the strings that are associated with the notes as well as the sheet music... Very helpful! Book also does a great job of working with fundamentals such as improving my left hand weak hits and mapping out the music on the various courses...
Also highly recommend the companion disc to hear the music...
Good luck on playing this beautiful instrument!
