“Greensleeves“ on Bowed Psaltery

I made this video many years ago when I was just learning how to make a video it has a few flaws but it was intended to show a progression of techniques and I am tuned to ’concert pitch“ A 440hz which is how most people tune their instruments, to which A 432hz sounds horribly flat, and of course to people who tune to A 432hz think A 440hz sounds too sharp and strident. For the reasons this is so please look into CYMATICS. Hear my “Greensleeves“ A 432hz for a comparison at In 1973, I got my first Bowed Psaltery and played this tune in a week, I was so excited! Dave Lucas, “Dave’s Psalteries“ built me this Bowed Psaltery as a custom order. The most ancient stringed musical instrument was one single string tuned to a note, the Monochord. Where and when a monochord was first played upon by dragging a rosined stick or horse hair bow across it is lost in the mists of time. Any early version of the Bowed Psaltery would probably have had a scale of strings available to be plucked as well as bowed. In Europe in the 1800’s it developed into the Violin-Zither which has chordally arranged strum strings as well as individually bowed strings. The modern chromatic Bowed Psaltery using modern metal strings is gaining in popularity around the world. “Psaltery Strings“ is the web site for the world wide Bowed Psaltery community.
