Simple Gifts 3-parts

 

 

Simple Gifts:

The following are the .PDF files, but they have not been proofread by Ken Bloom and I am not able to get in touch with him at the moment.  Since our lives are going to be very hectic with family matters in the coming weeks, I did not want to delay the process.  Please check back frequently for updated versions.

 NOTE: Part three (C) is a version Kerry has modified so it can be played by all bowed dulcimers.  This is the song that John, Susanne and I plan to play at the Open Stage at Cullowhee and will also be used in the bowed dulcimer class.

ANOTHER NOTE:  Part A is played entirely in the second position (index finger on fret 2) except for four measures at D (goes to IV [fourth] position - index finger at the fourth fret) and then returns to second position.

Part A - Page 1 / Page 2 / Page 3 / Page 4

Part B - Page 1 / Page 2 / Page 3 / Page 4

Part C - Page 1 / Page 2 / Page 3 / Page 4

(You may have to set the "fit to page" setting.  I really flew through creating these .PDF files and hope dial-up works.  If not, let me know)
