Re: What’s this?

Sorry about dropping the ball on the follow-up. The restoration went well, and I enjoy playing that little zither. The main problem is "real life" which prevents me from getting back to it, regularly enough. (I keep it at a place in the mountains, because that's where *I* want to be and wh...

Re: California Zither players?

The answer is "YES" (and I am not even alone!).
I grew up in Bavaria, too; and my fiscal residence is in Central California, too - although I spend extended periods of time back in Europe (like currently). Send mail to velocio1@gmail.com and we'll go from there.

Re: Practice Video - Danza Morena

Compliments, Andy! Your progress is motivating for the rest of us. In this spirit, if anybody else wants to see the score to follow practicing in Andy's footsteps (without waiting until the order of the Spielbuch 6B arrives), look at the first sample page on https://www.stretta-music.com/en/heinz-sp...

Re: FIT BIT?

Next week will be the eighth anniversary of the beginning of my (mostly very lonely) zither practice. Keeping track of practice time definitely has been valuable for me, too. Other advice I received along the way, and which I found to be useful: - make a plan for the more substantial practice sessio...
