New instructional content : Tympanim #2, Morrison's Jig!
Here is my second animated dulcimer video, Morrison's Jig, one of the most famous Irish jigs.
This time, I added a video demo at the end to illustrate how the tune looks like played by real hands (mine).
EDIT : my version is a bit simplified, in most arrangements repeats of the B-part are slightly different. As with many traditional tunes, I encourage you to listen to different arrangements to decide the exact way your prefer to play them.
If you want to learn this tune in depth, or more generally learn how to play hammered dulcimer, I'd be glad to offer private lessons, feel free to reach me using social media (user : Val Cortoni on facebook / instagram)
Next video will be Carolan's Welcome on Nov 2nd, 2022.
I'm planning to release animated tunes every 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month on my Youtube channel. Don't forget to subscribe and hit the bell to be notified!
If you're interested in seeing a specific traditional tune in this format, feel free to leave a comment under the video with your suggestion, or reach me using social media (see above).
Take care!

Project info & disclaimers :
As a not-so-fluent music reader, I have done several attempts at finding a workaround to learn dulcimer easier. I ended up developing my own computer routine to generate some dulcimer animations with notes names, hit marks, playing back with audio at different speeds.Eventhough I've progressed at music reading, my animations helped me a lot when I started, to visualize/memorize tunes, and find my way on the dulcimer. I just improved the graphics so I can share these videos with the community, I think they can be helpful to other players who begin with this wonderful instrument. As in my country, a hammered dulcimer is called a tympanon, I named my little animated tympanon : the Tympanim :)
Tympanim is a series of video, not a standalone software, I generate these animations using several commercial softwares. Videos are aimed at beginner level, playing back at normal-speed and half-speed. Hits marks are shown with different symbols & colors for each hand. The tunes can be played on a standard 12/12 instrument. I want to highlight that these videos are not aimed at replacing a teacher that will correct hands position, grip, dynamics, etc. They are more to be considered like a way to get familiar with the instrument, without letting reading difficulties spoil the fun. As there are many possible sticking patterns for a single tune, I propose what I would play myself, being a right-handed player with my own technique, but do not hesitate to experiment if some other pattern feels easier than what I wrote, my animations are only to be taken as starting point.
Hope you have fun with this tool !
