You have a great way you seal the seal the wood and it courses they vibrate like no other one of the louder ones I have got I have it a to a Norwegian kid who know nothing about his heritage and he was so happy
This channel is awesome! I play quite a few instruments, but i want to play more. Especially older instruments. The problem is, they are so expensive, especially where i am from. I have been wanting to start making my own instruments for a while, as i love wood working, but i suppose I am a little afraid of failure. But your channel has inspired me to finally gonfor it. Thank you!
I just started building my first lyre yesterday. I found this video today. My lyre is literally the same as this one. It is 8 inches across, 2 inches deep. Only 3 inches longer. And i even built it the same way. I never saw anyone build it this way until now.
And whats your point? The channel is connect to my Etsy shop and I show off the instruments I make. Do I promote my instruments? yes. I hope your having a wonderful day and happy, life is short.
I don´t know what greek lyre You had in mind (there are several different types) But the result reminds me more of some scandinavien lyres, like the Hylestad Lyre, or the Mo Lyre.
Wow, this is a lovely look at your shop, and this instrument. Very peaceful vib, with the wind chimes in the background🎶🌎☮❤ I'm thinking of making a bow like that, for some of my ethnic stringed instruments. Thanks for the inspiration, and sharing this video. Best wishes for your continued success and fun, with music instrument making.
Sorry you'll have to translate 1.) tune your instrument properly --> as perfect as you can 2.) if horse hair detunes too quickly, make dacron b50 strings or buy violin/viola 3.) DON'T use markings --> you'll end up training your ears wrong. Strings bend and stretch constantly over time, rendering markings unreliable 4.) take your tuner out and find ONE note on the melody string. Not more. You don't want to overwhelm yourself in the beginning 5.) practice good/slow/steady 90° bow strokes 6.) practice that note and strokes combined 7.) find a spot you can remember with your hand by feeling it --> a good position let's you find notes easier 8.) scales work like on any other instrument If it sounds "wrong" adjust your fingers until it doesn't. Retune often! Notes come like the alphabet. CDEFGAB with their half notes inbetween. So if your strings are tuned for example to d A D --> d is the melody string then you can use the notes D E F G for minor and D E F# G for major for example D E F G // D E F# G 0 2 3 5 // 0 2 4 5 minor major 0 - open string // 2 - index finger // 3 - middle finger // 4 - ringfinger // 5 pinky finger
