Hi Karen, it is very helpful to listen to your advises. It seems helpful that i play already different instruments. Violine can be may be helpful to use the bow well. And accordion helps to understand the flats and sharps. I plan to order a Tenor and hope it is ok for me as beginner. If any question it is good to contact you. Greetings from Germany near Airport Frankfurt.

I love to watch your videos. Your playing is awesome. I have been playing for 5 yrs. I use 2 bows but have never played chords or harmony. I never played piano. Would you have some suggestions of beginner exercise to learn how to begin adding chords or harmony

I play by ear and began by playing something simple that I could chose a harmony note to stay on while I played the melody. As I got the feel for using two bows playing different things at the same time, I just got brave about adding more notes in the harmony. It took a while to get comfortable, but I loved it so much I just kept practicing. Hope you have the same experience!

It would help to know the notes of each string

It varies by psaltery. Mine is strung in the key of D so F# and C# are on the right side. You can find out your string names using a tuner or tuning app on your phone. Good luck.

Hi Karen. I just received the baritone bowed psaltery and looking for someone to give me some private lessons. Can you refer someone in New York?

This FB site doesn't say anything about lessons. Is there another way to reach your friend

Hi Karen, does your psaltery have wound strings on the lower notes.? I want to replace the steel strings on mine with wound ones on the lower notes.. just not sure what gauge to use...any thoughts. Thanks

Yes it does. It was made that way. That would be a question to ask the maker of your particular psaltery. It might need to have internal supports to accommodate the extra tension.
