Sound Clips for the Songs in
Psaltery Strings Music Book Vol. 1

These are the sound clips of all the songs in Vol. one of Donna Malus's Psaltery Strings Music Book.  You can order a copy here.

We will be using these songs in the jams at the Gathering in Nov.  These won't be the only songs we will play, but it will be great for everyone to be able to prepare for some of the jam tunes.  Great also to have the musical score to keep us together in the timing, key, and version of the songs.

The metronome beat starts two measures before you come in, actually I think there is one I messed up with only one measure.   I played the faster tunes at a slower speed, to help in the learning process.  They are not perfect, but pretty close for learning. 

These are .mp3 files, so you can just click the play button again to hear them over and over.  You could also save the file and open them in Audacity.  That program can actually slow the sound clip down, while maintaining the pitch.  You could even speed them up to playing speed, after you have learned them, to play along.

Thanks for visiting the site.  Have a look around while you're here.
