Tom McConnell - Baritone Dulcimer Jam Book

I haven’t had a lot of time to get into this book yet. An overview indicates that it will be very helpful as I grow in my baritone dulcimer use. I think it will meet my needs.

I just bought a baritone dulcimer. I decided this was a good book to get started. It is ADA tuning so can be played with others in DAD.

I love the tab but had trouble downloading to iPad and getting into forScore. I still do t think I have audio but it’s because of my limited tech skills. I should have just ordered the paper book.

Tom McConell's book shows the many different things you can do with a Baritone dulcimer. Some songs highlight chords, some harmony and other simply show how to play the same notes as a Dad dulcimer. I was hoping that the book would do more to define a particular role for the Baritone dulcimer. The key of A is much easier for those who wish to sing along with the Baritone. The Baritone is also great for playing harmony. I don't think the Baritone dulcimer will come into its own until a definite role for it is defined in the dulcimer tapestry,

Tom McConnell - Baritone Dulcimer Jam Book

This is a great book to have to find ways of making a baritone fit in a jam, especially for those of us less experienced.

New to baritone dulcimer very helpful with great standard tunes.

I just received my baritone dulcimer 2 weeks before purchasing this book. I really appreciate that this has both the melody and baritone accompaniment for all of the tunes on facing pages where possible. Very nice book!

So easy to download and save on my computer and tablet!

I recently got a baritone dulcimer which I'd like to play with my Dulcimers and Stuff group. The group uses Stephen Seifert's Join the Jam book. The Baritone book pairs well with the group. It has many of the songs that are part of the jam book with nice Harmony Parts. It includes the song melodies in DAD for those who want to play melody and harmony with a partner out of the same book. Simple music theory with chords charts for the Baritone are included. I like it. Now I need a book that has the melodies for Baritone. How about a sequel Tom McConnell?

This book has alot of the tunes our group plays. I am excited to take my Baritone and play with the group.

This book will definitely allow me to participate in familiar tunes at a DAd jam because it is set up as chords to accompany the standard dulcimers playing those tunes. However, I thought the book would give me the actual tune tab for the AEa baritone rather than just the accompanying chords

Great book

The digital download was a great way to receive your book and information quickly. I'm still trying to figure out how to do technology downloads but will continue to learn. I really like the music files of melody so I can practice the harmony parts. This is a great resource to learn the baritone part of jam tunes!

Tom McConnell offers beginning baritone dulcimer players an alternative to having to retune the baritone to ADa when playing in jams. Maintaining AEa in the jam is a wonderful option that others to date have not offered. The eBook option was an excellent portable option for me.

Great book

The selection of songs will ensure that with your baritone dulcimer you will be able to play in jam sessions. The book contains a great section on music theory and has a extensive set of chord charts for AEa tuning. It is evident that a lot of thought and work went into this book.

This is a great book as it is hard to find baritone jam books to play with “standard” dulcimers. Folk craft carries a wide selection of dulcimer books by many artists for varying levels of players.
