color: #0d0d0d; font-family: Roboto, Noto, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; white-space-collapse: preserve;">This tune is 40 years old this year, created in 1983, improvised and recorded on cassette a few months after learning to play the guitar at a club at school. My friend Roland played the chords on the original, and I did the melody. (it has a flavour of Nights in White Satin and House of the rising sun crossed with Spanish guitar music which says a lot about the music we were listening to)
This is my solo version of the tune. Forgive my fingerpicking and timing, very rusty!
The original version on cassette had sounds of the playground in the background and takes me back to that moment each time I listen or play this tune, a tune of sadness, friendship and nostalgia.
I think we performed this once or twice at school and in a talent show as part of a group of tunes.
This tune represents a time when I wasn’t enjoying school but learning the guitar meant Io could hide away in the Music room in between lessons and use the instruments and recording tools.
I have played this tune by ear a few times a year when I pick up the guitar, although there have been years when I didn't play the guitar.
Thanks across time and space to my music teacher, (Miss Thomas), Kelmscott high school
and to Roland, the co-creator of course!

There will be a full write up or my blog and the upcoming Lyre making book.
Message me if you are interested.
Just a quick walkthrough here.
I spent most of the time stitching and shearing the skin
card template used for the flap section that was sewn on.
Scissors and Dog Hair Clippers used to reduce the sheepskin depth in places.
Staghorn toggle as a fastener, leather woven cord.
Sheepskins sewn with saddle stitching.</span></div>Michael J Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06488416586450902698noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949315089227912230.post-72981020559039331522023-07-24T02:17:00.004-07:002023-07-24T02:17:55.082-07:00A Melody for Sennen Cove<iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/l88XZDzSpIA" width="480"></iframe><div><br /></div><div><a class="yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" href="https://www.youtube.com/@hrafnrikardsson793" spellcheck="false" style="background-color: white; cursor: pointer; display: block; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-right: -0.1em; overflow-wrap: var(--yt-endpoint-word-wrap,none); overflow: hidden; padding-right: 0.1em; text-decoration: var(--yt-endpoint-text-regular-decoration,none); text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: pre; word-break: var(--yt-endpoint-word-break,none);">Hrafn Rikardsson</a><a class="yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" href="https://www.youtube.com/@hrafnrikardsson793" spellcheck="false" style="background-color: white; cursor: pointer; display: block; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-right: -0.1em; overflow-wrap: var(--yt-endpoint-word-wrap,none); overflow: hidden; padding-right: 0.1em; text-decoration: var(--yt-endpoint-text-regular-decoration,none); text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: pre; word-break: var(--yt-endpoint-word-break,none);"><br /></a><a class="yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" href="https://www.youtube.com/@hrafnrikardsson793" spellcheck="false" style="background-color: white; cursor: pointer; display: block; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-right: -0.1em; overflow-wrap: var(--yt-endpoint-word-wrap,none); overflow: hidden; padding-right: 0.1em; text-decoration: var(--yt-endpoint-text-regular-decoration,none); text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: pre; word-break: var(--yt-endpoint-word-break,none);"><span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); color: #131313; font-size: 14px; text-wrap: wrap;">"A short, unplanned plucking session inspired by the wind and the waves at Sennen Cove, Cornwall."</span></a><a class="yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" href="https://www.youtube.com/@hrafnrikardsson793" spellcheck="false" style="background-color: white; cursor: pointer; display: block; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-right: -0.1em; overflow-wrap: var(--yt-endpoint-word-wrap,none); overflow: hidden; padding-right: 0.1em; text-decoration: var(--yt-endpoint-text-regular-decoration,none); text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: pre; word-break: var(--yt-endpoint-word-break,none);"><span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); color: #131313; font-size: 14px; text-wrap: wrap;"><br /></span></a><a class="yt-simple-endpoint style-scope yt-formatted-string" dir="auto" href="https://www.youtube.com/@hrafnrikardsson793" spellcheck="false" style="background-color: white; cursor: pointer; display: block; font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-right: -0.1em; overflow-wrap: var(--yt-endpoint-word-wrap,none); overflow: hidden; padding-right: 0.1em; text-decoration: var(--yt-endpoint-text-regular-decoration,none); text-overflow: ellipsis; white-space: pre; word-break: var(--yt-endpoint-word-break,none);"><span style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); color: #131313; font-size: 14px; text-wrap: wrap;"><br /></span></a></div>Michael J Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06488416586450902698noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949315089227912230.post-52536842285028661162023-07-06T22:09:00.001-07:002023-07-06T22:09:47.949-07:00Sutton Hoo Lyre 2023 by Michael J King<iframe frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://youtube.com/embed/0HgKpvcPdy4" width="480"></iframe><div><br /></div><div>For this lyre I combined my version of the British museum, my soundboard gradients, as on the lyre making Cd/Download/book with the body form from Jan van Capelle's revised plan, Boxwood pegs and tailpiece, maple and plum bridges, aquila strings. no soundholes on this lyre.

string kanteles are the earliest type for runic songs, historically this is the starting point and the diatonic "D e f g a" notes are found in the middle of the 10 or 11 string instruments.</div><div>5 string kanteles are used in schools for early learning like the recorder for young children in Finland and other Baltic countries, </div><div>With 5 strings you can play the early Runic song repertoire, simple rhymic tunes, basic chords, mixed melody and chordal playing</div><div>see my <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUbUFOnDhgU" target="_blank">old online tutor for a starting point and introduction.</a> </div><div><br /></div><div><div>More strings have greater melodic opportunities, 10 strings were very popular for playing chordal styles, 11 strings add the missing top C sharp and good if you are mixing chords and melodies.</div><div>This is my most popular model Tutor book available by Arja Kastinen</div><div><br /></div><div>15 string diatonic for harp-like playing, </div><div>15 String Drone (11 melody and 4 drones) for Solo drone style of playing. </div></div><div><br /></div><div><b>5 String Kantele</b></div><div>My online tutor series: <a

<p></p>Ideally, you would choose your lyre based on the pitch you wanted to play or to match your voice for accompaniment but if you already have the lyre then there is still some range of flexibility depending on the thickness and placement of the string, this is why I have a wide range of string sets available.
<p>My new "Viking" set for the Anglo-Saxon Lyre 6 string model is thicker than my standard set and allows the shorter scale model I offer to tune to G pitch if required.</p><p>Tuning examples depending on the length of the lyre:<b></b></p><p><b>
<b>Standard Lyre strings:</b></b></p><p><i>Sutton Hoo G / Trossingen E / Viking Lyre B pitch</i></p><p><b><b><b>Trossingen G Set:</b></b></b></p><p><i>Sutton Hoo A / Trossingen G /Viking Lyre C pitch</i></p><p></p><b>

Do check out her classic kantele album on the 1833 Bronze kantele on her website<br /><br />
<br /><br />
<iframe 1833="" a="" album="" allowfullscreen="" arja="" for="" frameborder="0" from="" height="270" is="" kantele="" kastinen="" listening="" makes="" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/K2CIerGyomU?clip=&clipt=EAAYAA%3D%3D" this="" video="" whos="" width="480" wnderful="" youtube=""></iframe><br /><br />

<br /><br />
She writes in her video notes:<br /><br />
<span style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #030303; font-family: "roboto" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; white-space: pre-wrap;">"Four runosong melodies with variations played on a 5-string kantele. The kantele is a replica made by Rauno Nieminen. It has bronze strings. The original was made by the famous runosinger Ontrei Malinen in 1833 in Vuonninen, Viena Karelia. The kantele is tuned according to harmonics, and thus it's not in Equal Temperament. <br />
<br />
You can find old runosongmelodies online at: esavelmat.jyu.fi - "Haku" - "tarkennettu haku" - "kokoelmat". And when you scroll down from the "kokoelmat", you can find two collections of runosongs: "Runosävelmät I" and "Runosävelmät II". The four runosong melodies that are played on this video were collected by Axel August Borenius in 1877 and in 1879 in Ilomantsi, Leppävirta and Kivijärvi (Hiitola). You can transpose the melodies and you should also variate them; only one or two basic phrases are written down."</span>Michael J Kinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06488416586450902698noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949315089227912230.post-83695854324629152832020-03-19T11:40:00.001-07:002020-03-19T11:40:43.009-07:00Free: 5 String Kantele ebook and plans Download<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/LExrbhDRjUE?clip=&clipt=EAAYAA%3D%3D" width="480"></iframe><br /><br />

My original 2004 ebook and plan are now available to download for free, for educational use by anyone in these unprecedented times. They are meant as a springboard to start making musical instruments, an introduction to the Finnish Style kantele and its traditional playing. The ebook guides you through construction and you can either print off plans on your home computer or draw them out by hand, </span><br /><br />
