Description:

The scheitholt[from drones to fretted is Dadd then Dadd]...It's possible to get a harp-like effect by incorporating the drone strings into the melody if the range is right.I made this tune in Vancouver,2013 while living in the DTES neighbourhood.

So …..soothing, calming….. I could put this on a loop and just let it play!  Beautifully done!

I find the dulcimer wonderful because of the comfort level the drone strings provide when playing a melody....nevertheless I have found that the scheitholt is even more enabling with its extra four drones...
