Eric's Second Hammered Dulcimer Original (for now)

[ilyverymuchly]

Spellbinding! I've been contemplating whether or not to buy a hammered dulcimer, and this video made me want one 100%. lol

One of the best things about this instrument is that you get these enormous chords that turns heads.

WOW! That is mesmerizing. You make it look easy but that has GOT to be difficult. Thanks. I chanced upon your video while I was looking for the music to 'Dulaman' for the tin whistle.

Thanks for your compliments! Do you play the tin whistle? I am planning on posting some videos of my penny whistles soon, but I am waiting to have a friend help me record it in our chapel where the acoustics are absolutely amazing for the whistle.

Well, not like I'd imagine you do. I like to play because the fingerings are much like the saxophone which I enjoyed playing as a kid and it is my only creative outlet. I am looking forward to your next video.

Very Beautiful. How long have you been playing? That is a very nice masterworks dulcimer you have. I am waiting on my Cloud Nine 20/19/8 to be completed. It should be done in late January and I will post videos as soon as it arrives.

Thank you very much for the nice compliments. I have been playing for 4 years as of this Christmas. I started off on a Rick Thum 13/12 Meadowlark. I will be excited to see your new dulcimer, I'm assuming with the extra strings and bridges, it will have an extended bass range? I wanted that so I took my three chromatic notes on my Mater Works and tuned them down to C, A, and G below my lowest D.
