Download or read book 20 Celtic Tunes for the Bowed Psaltery written by Jm Bolton and published by International Digital Book Publishing, Incorporated. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains twenty traditional Celtic tunes arranged for the bowed psaltery or other C instrument such as the recorder, penny whistle, and fiddle. Some songs are in the original key with the addition of a version transposed into the key of C which is easier for the bowed psaltery. Songs include music from Ireland, Wales, Scotland, and Galicia. Several of them were composed by Turlough O'Carolan. This music was selected not only because it plays well on the bowed psaltery, but because some of these tunes are not well known and deserve to be heard more often. Not many books of music for the psaltery are available, and here is an opportunity to expand your repertory.

This book was released on 2021-09-20 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the things I did to pay my way through college was to entertain at coffee houses, playing the guitar and singing folk songs. Many of the songs in the collection are old favorites that were in my repertoire. While I sang a lot of songs from the English-speaking countries, I especially loved finding tunes from other countries. Many those songs have found their way into this book. Then, when I finally put the book together with 45 songs, there was a space left over just big enough to add one more song. So, I did! The songs are arranged as solos, duets, and rounds. As well as notes for the psaltery, lyrics and guitar chords are included for many of the tunes. This collection includes: Anile Anile Vaa Vaa Vaa, Avenging and Bright, Ba Huangshan Biachen Fu, The Blackest Crow, Blow Away the Morning Dew, Bottom of the Punchbowl, Branle de Bourgogne, Ciocarlanul - The Lark, Come All Fair & Tender Maidens, Come Dance and Sing, Corcorans Cross, Early One Morning, Flowers of Edinburgh, For Ireland I'll not Tell Her NameFour Marys, The Gentle Maiden, The Great Silky of Sule Skerry, Green Broom, Hatikvah - The Hope, The House Carpenter, How Can I Keep from Singing?, Huron Carol - 'Twas in the Midst of Wintertide, Jasmine Flower, Jubilate Deo Omnis, Kathleen O'Moore, Korobeiniki, Land of Our Fathers, Lord Thomas of Winesberry, Mairi's Wedding, Mallibrok, Michael Row the Boat Ashore, The Minstrel Boy, Mo Ghile Mear, Mo Li Hua - Jasmine Flower, Moscow Nights, Muss I Denn, Never Weather-Beaten Sail, Odzidani - Expectation Waltz, Piri Miri Dictum Domini, Sakura - Cherry Blossoms, Sara Sara, Three Ravens, Water is Wide, Whistling Gypsy, Yslwffyl - The Doorknocker, Yuki - Snow Song.

This book was released on 2016-12-12 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing everything from the details of everyday life to recreation and warfare, this two-volume work examines the social, political, intellectual, and material culture of the American "Old West," from the California Gold Rush of 1849 to the end of the 19th century. What was life really like for ordinary people in the Old West? What did they eat, wear, and think? How did they raise their children? How did they interact with government? What did they do for fun? This encyclopedia provides readers with an engaging and detailed portrayal of the Old West through the examination of social, cultural, and material history. Supported by the most current research, the multivolume set explores various aspects of social history—family, politics, religion, economics, and recreation—to illuminate aspects of a society's emotional life, interactions, opinions, views, beliefs, intimate relationships, and connections between the individual and the greater world. Readers will be exposed to both objective reality and subjective views of a particular culture; as a result, they can create a cohesive, accurate impression of life in the Old West during the second half of the 1800s.

Download or read book The Science of String Instruments written by Thomas D. Rossing and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-12-15 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas D. Rossing String instruments are found in almost all musical cultures. Bowed string instruments form the backbone of symphony orchestras, and they are used widely as solo inst- ments and in chamber music as well. Guitars are used universally in pop music as well as in classical music. The piano is probably the most versatile of all musical inst- ments, used widely not only in ensemble with other musical instruments but also as a solo instrument and to accompany solo instruments and the human voice. In this book, various authors will discuss the science of plucked, bowed, and hammered string instruments as well as their electronic counterparts. We have tried to tell the fascinating story of scienti?c research with a minimum of mathematics to maximize the usefulness of the book to performers and instrument builders as well as to students and researchers in musical acoustics. Sometimes, however, it is dif?cult to “translate” ideas from the exact mathematical language of science into words alone, so we include some basic mathematical equations to express these ideas. It is impossible to discuss all families of string instruments. Some instruments have been researched much more than others. Hopefully, the discussions in this book will help to encourage further scienti?c research by both musicians and scientists alike. 1.1 A Brief History of the Science of String Instruments Quite a number of good histories of acoustics have been written (Lindsay 1966, 1973; Hunt 1992; Beyer 1999), and these histories include musical acoustics.
