This is the main theme from
"Morrowind"(Bethesda softworks), one of The Elder Scrolls series of computer games.
It's hard to imitate an orchestral piece with the dulcimer, an insrument that has only three notes, which are D, A, and DD (a "unison" of two strings tuned to the same note and played together.) The scale of frets is diatonic, not chromatic, so each octave has only 8 rather than the 12 of a chromatic scale. (note the wide spaces between certain frets.)
Fortunately, however, the Morrowind melody is pure and simple, although no less beautiful because of it, and can be played on a diatonic scale with no need for the missing semitones. Hope you all enjoy this version. (It still needs a little more practice.)
