Country Editorial Review
** The Dulcimer Book by Jean Ritchie** "The Dulcimer Book," written by the esteemed Jean Ritchie, serves not only as a practical guide for both novice and experienced players but also as a heartfelt tribute to the Appalachian mountain dulcimer. Ritchie, a vital figure in the folk music revival of the mid-20th century, played a crucial role in revitalizing this unique instrument. Her authority and passion are palpable throughout the book, which has been reprinted multiple times since the late 1950s, reflecting its enduring value to dulcimer enthusiasts. Readers have expressed appreciation for Ritchie's straightforward approach to music, detailing her preferred technique of melody-playing on a single string and strumming all strings simultaneously. This simplicity resonates with those yearning for authenticity in their dulcimer playing. Many reviewers found the book rich with historical anecdotes and practical advice, providing insights into both the instrument itself and the culture surrounding it. While some notes on playing might be challenging for complete beginners, a background in music appears to ease the learning curve significantly. Additionally, the inclusion of traditional tunes, particularly the famed "Pretty Saro," has captivated many readers, echoing a level of emotional connection that only music can foster. Although some users noted that the book may lack extensive tablatures for teaching purposes, its historical depth and the 16 songs from Ritchie's family collection provide a special touch, making it more than just a tutorial. Overall, "The Dulcimer Book" is celebrated for its authenticity, historical significance, and practical guidance. It invites players to not only learn but to appreciate the rich traditions surrounding the Appalachian dulcimer. **
