Close to You with a Dulcimer

Hi friends -

Do we have any Carpenters of Burt Bacharach/Hal David fans here?

Here's a new video of "Close to You," one of the beautiful love songs from my youth. It's a new arrangement on chromatic dulcimer. (Tuned CGC, key of C.)

I actually performed this song, just once, many years ago, flipping the pronouns for comical effect. ("Just like you, they long to be close to me." Fun joke, but at 2 1/2 minutes, it was about 2:15 longer than it needed to be. We live, we learn.)

Enjoy!
