I like the way your fingers seem to be dancing to the tune along the frets, rather than playing it...

Thank you very much Randy! I appreciate you taking the time to comment. I do love this little dulcimer; I don't play it as often as I should.

Nice tune, lovely playing.The Hornpipes are of English origin. Around the 1760's the Hornpipes changed from triple time (3/2) to common time (4/4). At that time they were introduced on stage and danced between acts and scenes of plays.The Irish tunes adapted to the Hornpipe are more closely knit than the imported tunes, where there is more emphasis on steps than of skips and jumps. We had a lot of English visitors back in those days, can't get them to come near the place now.
