Dulcimer,Instrumental Solo - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1496379 By Jethro Tull. By Ian Anderson. Arranged by Jaymie Maham. 20th Century,Contemporary,Folk,Rock. Individual part. 7 pages. Jaymie Maham #1072948. Published by Jaymie Maham (A0.1496379). Arranged for mountain dulcimer in standard DAd (1-5-8) tuning. No extra frets required. Because of a few sixteenth note embellishments, I'm setting the suggested skill level at Intermediate to Upper Intermediate and above. However, if you enjoy this tune, it's a good one to stretch your abilities. (read below)This progressive rock classic is great fun to play. Use of power (barre) chord shapes in most measures really help to simplify finger positions. Once the chord shape is in place, other notes in the measure can be quickly flatpicked by just repositioning the thumb. Makes what sounds like a very challenging piece much easier to approach. If you're a Jethro Tull fan, you know that this is one of those songs that really sticks in your noggin. The old axiom, if you can sing it, you can play it holds true. Familiarity with the lyrics can help make this piece manageable for all levels of Intermediate player. Included in this packet:~DAd dulcimer tablature~Lead sheet standard notation~Complete lyrics~Accompaniment chords~Notes on finger positions A YouTube demo video will be uploaded soon.
