Lorraine Lee has been synonymous with the Appalachian dulcimer since the revival of interest in the 1960's. Her innovative style, artful performance, and gifted teaching have taken her from coast to coast and to Europe. During her years of playing, she has delighted audiences and students with her warm personality and musical skill. Many dulcimer players consider Lorraine their mentor. She has helped them through early exploration of the instrument and continues to be a source of ideas, encouragement and technical advice. This distinctive collection
of twenty-four Elizabethan songs and tunes includes favorites like Month of Maying, Hey-Ho, Nobody Home,
and Greensleeves, as well as less familiar musical treasures which will be welcome additions to any
Elizabethan repertoire.The sweet sound of the Appalachian dulcimer lends itself with good grace to the music of the Elizabethan era, says Lorraine in her introduction to this truly distinctive songbook. Originally published in 1977 and now back in print, this new, expanded edition of Barely Break provides helpful playing instructions for 24 Elizabethan songs--each one accompanied with dulcimer tablature, standard notation, and lyrics. Includes favorites like Month of Maying, Hey-Ho, Nobody Home, and Greensleeves, as well as less familiar musical treasures, all of which will be welcome additions to any repertoire. A classic that any musician will find invaluable.
