I made a bowed psaltery, I was just so happy it made sound considering how badly I handed the whole process. But that did make it so much more exciting.
This was a joy to watch. My great grandfather lived to 103 as did his dear wife, who did herbals. He and his father, from Bavaria, operated a waterpowered sawmill in Ohio, in which I was partly raised. While their work centered on furniture and marquetry, I know the spirit of this creation. I am so grateful to have stumbled upon your channel and body of work. At 71, with my heritage, I figure I have at least 32 more years to learn new things!
@Jack Strubbe People never stop learning. Even with 103 you can always go new ways and be interested in new things. If you are 103 tell me about your adventures. Take care and get old healthy. Greetings from bavaria Tom.
yeah!!! my mother is 82 and is car driving like a youngster.....no matter what your age is in pension...just still be in action - that's what will be you keep young! but the video is for artistical craftsman. you have to read the wood like a book....you have to know what is doing the material....and then create an instrument....wow!
Truly you have the hands of an Artist. The blood in your body resonates with the cosmos. I am always amazed that sparks don't emit from your fingerprints. There should at least be smoke! Know that you are a master. Thank you for sharing what has been given you.
You must have a beautiful soul to create such divine instruments and music! Light and blessings from the mountains of Kentucky where the dulcimer music is so sweet!
This is a beautiful sound, and to be honest you are the first lyre player i have ever heard..that was yesterday, and iam truly captivated by its melody..thank you.

Fantastic music. Very interesting video. Very different construction to my own way of hollowing out the body in the Anglo Saxon style. Keep up the great work.
I love your music. I play celtic harp. I play the harp in the ancient way of left shoulder and using left hand for trebles and right for bass. Many years ago i just started playing . Playing on right opposite like most people is very awkward for me....
I wish I could afford it sounds heavenly, reminds me a bit of the sound of my kantele but it's different, I wish I had the skills. It looks and sounds beautiful

TR][ODES Unfortunately I have to disappoint you. The plans and the way of proceeding are in my brain. Each instrument is individually handcrafted and is therefore a real one-off. The materials and the structure give me the form and thus the sound. Here some basics. The length varies between 55-80 cm. The width of 18- 26cm. The height 16-26 mm.

Amazing. I am just brainstorming myself to do the same. Your great video popped up on my youtube just a the right time. Questions : what's the purpose of tge small long pieces of wood at 4:45 ? How and where did you get the blueprints of the lyre ?
@Arnaud Lansalot Nice if i inspired you to build a lyre. Have fun. The woods at 4:45 are the bass bars. They transmit the sound from the top to the inside of the lyre, creating a full and rounded sound. They also stabilize the top. These woods are found in all stringed instruments. There are no blueprints; every instrument I build has different dimensions depending on the nature of the wood. The origin of the design lies in an archaeological find. I hope you enjoy building your lyra. Greetings from Bavaria.Tom
My build project is few months old now. i was searching "tutorials" and tricks for it when i watched your video. Ok, no blueprints. but each parts has several dimensons which are dependant of each other like those of the bass bars, their lenght should be precise regarding the size of the instrument. I saw the archeological finding when i checked Atelier Skald which built this kind of model.
@Arnaud Lansalot I have built over 50 Lyras now and each instrument is a little different from the others. With each construction I have added experience and next time I try to improve the sound and the inner construction. Each time I learn the sensitive feeling for the sound anew. The constant learning from experience drives me to build a really unique instrument. I pass this knowledge on to the next generation through oral tradition.It was bevor 2200 years ago and it is still so today. Greetings from Bavaria .Tom
@@TOMWOLDON thank you. one more question For the main part of the instrument what to you use? I take it’s you have spruce for the front and maple for the back? What’s the body of the instrument made from. I can’t see it very clear on the video.

#Bastian Schöls Dies werde ich des Öfteren gefragt.Diese Leier ist einem Grabfund aus dem Frühmittelalter nachempfunden.Und tatsächlich ,das Original hat vier Löcher.Diese sind allerdings so klein das ich nicht glaube, dass es Schalllöcher sind .Ich habe die Originalleier gesehen und daraufhin mit Schalllöchern experimentiert.Dabei habe ich keinen signifikanten Unterschied bei Lautstärke und Klang festgestellt.
