Groovy! What plectrum did you use here? I use several incarnations of plectrum depending on era of music and instrument at hand. . . . And, in spite of my sinistral tendencies, my plectrum, punteado, and occasional rasgueado efforts are always executed with the right hand. While Jean-Paul certainly plays it faster, the effect is no more entertaining. Cheers!

No I don't know this recording. Jean-Paul Bazin has an incredible technique and I suppose he played it ten times faster (and more skilfully) with divisions, or whatever they were called then. I met him many years ago . Very nice chap too. I also like the way he and the group play music from different eras. I'm a left-hander like you, Eugene but I play right-handedly. I really like trying to play with a plectrum every so often. It's just so different. I think I've come to terms with fingerstyle with the right hand (as a left-handed person) but plectrum technique is something else. But worth a go, I think. (also I tuned the dulcimer to Pythagorean. Well, I think I did. I tuned the dial on my Korg tuner to Pythagorean and took it from there and then the gittern to the dulcimer. The dulcimer, as I have tuned it, doesn't have a C sharp so I tuned the gittern C sharp to the Korg. It sounds odd to me but seems pretty close to what the Korg claims to be a C#.)
