Building a Medieval Harp (Psaltery, Kantele, Zither)
My latest woodworking instrument build, The Zither/Psaltery is one of the oldest known stringed instruments, with origins dating back to ancient Mesopotamia, over 5,000 years ago. It has been used in various forms throughout history across many cultures, including ancient Greece, Rome, and the Middle East.
The design of the psaltery has evolved over time and across countries. Early psalteries were simple, often trapezoidal or rectangular, with strings stretched across the body. In the Middle Ages, more elaborate forms emerged, sometimes with additional resonating bodies or more strings. This style is more modern in design. Thanks so much for watching the video!

    'Because my obsessions change', I learned that when yew is used for bows, it is split before shaping because the internal and external wood are good at either compression or stress and I think the bow should put some tension on the horse-hair. I think you've probably encouraged more people to have a go than the people who know exactly what they're doing :-). I learned a few days ago that violins have a saddle. It might be worth having a look before the next one.

    Just another day in mid-September I was thinking of you I was thinking of a place I remember and a song we'd journey to So can we leave it all tomorrow Can we do it all again Can we do the things we're dreaming about Cause the years are going quicker than they were back then. More mistakes than I'll ever admit But they faded when the sunlight hit On the lake out in Idaho Where the forest hears all I know I'm terrified of what I've become I'm forgetting all the things I've done I thought you said I would see you again Guess the words came easier then I know I belong back there And this road im travelling it goes no where You tell me im stuck in the past But the signs are telling me I'm going too fast I always knew it would be something I'd miss But I couldn't ever know that it would hurt me like this, so If you want to go for one last ride We can take this old car and leave the world behind California never looked so pretty We took the trip out of Oklahoma city Like we did many years ago Take the turning off the highway that could bring me home Count the stars in the summertime sky Watch the ferry boats getting so high and I hope you're wishing for the same things too And I hope that you could love me like I'm loving you so, Can we leave it all tomorrow? Can we do it all again Can we do the things we're dreaming about Cause the years are going quicker than they were back then. Can we leave it all tomorrow? Can we do it all again Can we do the things we're dreaming about Cause the years are going quicker than they were back then.

    It’s called hymn number 6 so is hymn 1 older but never found or is it like star wars thy they started on 4 with the intention of making a prequel?

    • @AidenAppletonMusic
      @AidenAppletonMusic 2 месяца назад

      Hey, i believe the others where found largely damaged and incomplete, They might well have been older but i think they would have been written down on the clay tablets as a collection of hymns, i guess will never really know if we have older parts of melodies from no.1-5 or not maybe they did the star wars thing and started on 6, 3500 years before Lucas did, guess will never know.

    Great video. I'm in the process of making my own talharpa. I too have a family member with an entire basement of tools. I'm building mine differently. I had these 2 nice 8in x 72inx 3/4in pieces of red oak. I cut them in half and now i have a 4 in thick 8"x36" rectangle. I cut out holes on 3 of them and the 4th I routered into it about 1/2in leaving a 1/4in back. Next, I'm going to glue those 4 pieces together. Then I have this 2-tone cherry and oak for the front of it!!! aaaaahhhhh it's going to be AMAZING!!

      Thanks for the kind words, I would recommended practicing some scales that move around the fretboard and can train up moving and stretching. Something that changes position on the guitar. best of luck.
