What is a dulcimer? The dulcimer is an old stringed instrument. Its ancestor, the scheitlot, was found in the late 1700's in Pennsylvania. The Appalachia people changed this instrument and came up with the dulcimer in the 1800's. Why? It is not known. The word dulcimer means "sweet song", and that describes it well.
There are many different shapes of dulcimers. The Appalachia dulcimer is shaped like an hourglass, or like a woman, as many say. In those days women playing a stringed instrument were not allowed to stand in front of the men. So, they played the dulcimer, which was played on the lap. It was considered to be a woman's instrument. Today men and women alike play the dulcimer. |
