|| Note from Joshua
Woodsong Wanderlust originally appeared on "Woodland Dance" as an ensemble arrangement. After this release, I created this solo version for UA-cam. The arrangement developed and matured, and my subscribers requested a solo recording. The solo version now appears on my album "Pure Hammered Dulcimer."

Dónde aprendo a tocar ese instrumento el más hermoso que puedo escuchar 🌻
Gianna Barón ¡Gracias! Estoy usando Google Traductor. ¿Creo que quieres tocar el dulcimer martillado? Por favor, visite dulcimercrossing.com. Lamentablemente, las lecciones son en inglés. No sé dónde puedes aprender en español. ¡¡Gracias!!
I saw you at Winfield a few years ago and bought a CD, but somehow misplaced it. I tried searching to see if I could order another, but apparently didn't remember your name correctly. I'm so glad to have found your music again!
@@dmnhntr86 I’m so glad we were able to reconnect. Playing at Winfield was incredible, and I’m so glad we were able to meet there. Please continue to stay in touch!
Love this song! The first one I fell in love with your playing and the dulcimer!!!❤
Joshua was definitely a master graduate from the Bard's College in Skyrim...(;
Best comment.
Now this is fucking epic
Yes
I had never heard a instrument that sounds so divinely beautiful. It's such a gorgeous enchanting sound
Thank you! :)
It’s even better if you can get your hands on one and play for a bit. I had my first experience testing out a hammered dulcimer yesterday and can say that it is THE most beautiful instrument I’ve been honored to play.
The harp would be the only prettier instrument. In my opinion.
Sounds like a mix of piano and guitar. Could listen all day
A portable piano. Moonlight Sonata in the deep woods. Brilliant.
the hammered dulcimer is like if a piano, a xylophone and a guitar had a kid.
Very true! Thanks for watching :)
And a harp 😀
It always amazes me how much sound you get out of the instrument: at times like a piano, other times like a harp; always deep and resonant. I originally heard the dulcimer played this way at the Walnut Creek Festival in Winfield, KS and liked it. But I feel like I never REALLY heard it played until I started listening to your recordings. This is one of your best, but they all are wonderful. Thank you, Josh!
Thanks, John! I appreciate it :-) It's great to hear from you again. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed this tune. Thanks for staying connected.
I'm from Kansas, and I guess I need to go to the Walnut Creek Festival. I never thought in a million years, I'd run into that event being mentioned by someone in the comments on youtube. I arrived at this video, by seeing someone create a piano, and replacing the piano wires with guitar strings. -- Someone in those comments said, that the correct instrument would be a hammered dulcimer... and here I am. -- This video was beautiful, and it is nice to know that Winfield has some national repute after all this time.
Thank you for playing something other than Celtic music!!!!!! This instrument has such a wonderful range. Great job!
I would love to be walking through the woods & hear these music. Both are beautiful
Thank you!
Imagine casually walking through the forest and seeing this
Tim LOL literally just now 😂
That actually happened during this take. A person was jogging, saw the cameras, and was considerate and quiet until the take was complete :-)
Love the hammered Dulcimer and the mountain Dulcimer
Wonderful! Thanks for watching :)
This beautiful piece of music brings another song but than with singing in my head. I try to remember what song that is but it won't in my head. Thank you so much for giving us music lovers the change to something so ethereal beautiful.
Takes years of anxiety meds😑 listens to 4 minutes of this beautiful instrument instand ptsd relieve 🥺
I am so glad to hear it helped you!
This song gave me chills. What a beautiful peace of music. Please continue to make more.
Thanks so much!
Looks like the Crows upset him for a split second until he realized nature was giving him a Flying ovation ! ...
Only celebration god can give you ;)
The crows did startle me at first, haha.
My favorite musical instrument. It gives me very deep chills and nostalgia for something I don't understand.
You're a real master.
Maybe the nostalgia cames from your childhood.. and you don't remember it. :)))
The Mighty Pika said it perfectly. I don't understand it either. This is fantastic.
Couldn't have said it better
I like how you stated that. I believe the nostalgia is for the universe itself. I think these types of sounds connect to us our distant previous states of existence as we evolved through, and with, the universe. I get the same feeling when I hear this, and other distant types of music. it's a wonderful feeling, I know that. The "On The Turning Away" solo (David Gilmour Pink Floyd) super connects me. That song in general is amazing. Might want to check it out.
I used to go to Mountain Craft Days in late summer every year in Jennerstown, Pennsylvania, and I always remember a hammer dulcimer being played. There were civil war/revolutionary war re-enactments, a maple sugaring shack, the Amish and Mennonites had their lebkuchen, apple cider was being pressed, people selling crafts and pewter figurines, and the sweet smell of wood smoke. The apple dumplings were to die for. But the hammer dulcimer is what I remember the most.
Josh Thomas That’s awesome to hear! Thanks for sharing this memory with me. And, with all of these treats, the hammered dulcimer is what you remembered to most? That’s super special. Thanks for finding my channel and taking the time to comment. Stay in touch!!
That was beautiful. For 3 minutes I was in a different land and was no longer thinking about the stresses of life. Thank you
Bryce Arnold thanks for sharing this! That is one of the best things about music, isn't it?
Damn, this audio quality is epic. Really captures the elegance of this instrument.
Thank you, Tim! Glad you enjoyed it :)
I can thank Tony Elman for introducing me to this talented hammered dulcimer magician!
Thanks so much for finding my channel! I appreciate you.
This must be one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. And your playing is sublime.
I hope I never stop discovering new instruments. This one is breath taking.
Truly incredible music..
Sir Daniel Fortesque That is great, Sir Daniel! Thanks for watching.
what the fuck did i just stumble on?? THIS is why I love UA-cam
I love going to Montreat and visiting Song of the Wood and looking at all the beautiful Hammered Dulcimers and other stringed instruments made there. Your music takes me there again every time I listen, thank you.
Very glad you enjoyed it! Thank you, Joseph.
I didn't know what a hammered dulcimer was until today (in fact I didn't even know it existed) and now I am in love xXx Thank you for sharing! Beautiful xXx
Jules Sparkles Super awesome to hear!! It’s a blast to introduce the hammered dulcimer to new people. For me, it was love at first sound. The hammered dulcimer has been a joy of my life for 25+ years. Thanks for watching and commenting. If you haven’t already subscribed, I’d love to have you as a subscriber to my channel - more videos are planned for 2019. Please stay in touch, ok? All the best, Joshua JoshuaMessick.com
BEAUTIFUL!!!! And perfect for that area of God's creation.
Joshua, brother, you are a total badass! Love your music... I have never seen anyone who can play as well as you!
Thanks, Eileen!
I had tried the mountain dulcimer a few years ago, but life got in the way of learning and practicing. I will save your songs and use them to motivate me to work on the much more simple version of a dulcimer. Thank you for the peace and calm.
Yamaha Keyboard tone named "Dulcimer" Brought me here!!
Glad you found my channel! Thank you 🙏🏻
those crows couldn't have timed it any more perfectly than they did wow
Haha, so true! Thanks for watching :)
You can tell a story with this music.
Hood Squigga Thank you, Hood! I appreciate you watching and listening. I do hear a story when I compose and play. Here is a video that explains my approach to music: ua-cam.com/video/VCT32qcF728/v-deo.html
Mr. Messick thank you for writing a beautiful, and inspiring piece. I wanted to lay the dulcimer down after I saw you play. Thank you for the kind , and inspiring words to encourage me.
So glad to hear the music touched your heart! Thanks for taking the time to share this with me. And, hopefully it will inspire you to pick up and your dulcimer and make beautiful music. Once again, thank you!
@@JoshuaMessick I hope you don't mind but I have been sharing your music on my Facebook page. Woodson Wanderlust is the most BEAUTIFUL piece of music I've ever heard. Thank you
Très intéressant, et ovationné par les corbeaux en toute fin de performance 👏🎶💖🎶
I first came across a hammered dulcimer in a small ancient village called Dunster in the South West of England, not far from where I live. The man playing was called Neil West, and I've never forgotten his playing, but I've never come across him or his music since. The performance of what he called Bear Dance but has many other names too (Morrison's), is a my all time favourite Dulcimer music, but this comes a very close second.
Katrina Oldcorn Thanks, Katrina! So glad you enjoyed it.
Absolutely Stunning Joshua I've loved the sound of this instrument for years and you really make it sound amazing
Thank you kindly! Please stay in touch!
Whoever wispered "beautiful" at the beginning of this video was more than 100 % correct
Why thank you, Karl! :-) Thanks for watching. So glad you enjoyed it. Stay in touch, ok? ;-)
@@JoshuaMessick
Oh hello! Thanks for appreciating my comment! :) Reading such nice words from the creator really touches me. Why this "why" at the beginning? You see, I'm blind, so wasn't able to see who actually said it, but I was able to hear someone saying that before the playing. And I couldn't resist writing this comment, because it's true. As for staying in touch, My e-mail is hozosch@web.de, so if you want to pass something on to me, feel free.
Karl Eick, it was Joshua himself who whispered "beautiful" at the start of this video.
Okay ... this is my favorite instrument now.
Thanks!! :-)
Thank you again!
My pleasure!
i travelled whith in your canadian woods and i dream in peace thanks
Thank you! Montreat is a beautiful place.
I'm grateful to have learned how to play vibrato notes on the dulcimer.
Levi Graham Thx for watching, Levi!! Please stay connected, ok? I’ll be adding more performance and tutorial videos soon. Best, Joshua
As he is playing out in nature, all the fairies began to dance!
Darius Ketchup Very nice! I am working on a solo album right now, and a fairy just might find its way into the music. Thanks for watching and please stay in touch!
This is gorgeous, just gorgeous🌟❤️
It’s amazing how a single instrument can play a whole host of amazing sounds. ❤ This artist is truly talented!
I loved this so much I bet the music to play on harp. Beautiful.
Thanks so much! My wife plays harp, and I think this would be a good match with the harp.I'd love to hear how it works out for you. I appreciate your support!
Crows were applauded in the end.......Amazing! For that good 3 minnutes, forest become dancing polygon for animals. Thank you Joshua, you bring joy to our lives!
Thank you for sharing the gifts of your healing heart with the rest of us. You've lifted a huge burden of sadness and pain off my shoulders with your music. I haven't felt this peaceful, calm, and whole in a very long time.
Axqu7227 This is so special for me to hear, thank you for sharing this with me! :)
Is this only the dulcimer playing? I struggle to believe that it is just one instrument, it sounds like whole orchestra. Wow. Amazing sound and amazing performance. If I weren´t already playing guitar I would absolutely get hammered dulcimer now. What an incredible instrument with heavenly sound.
So glad you enjoyed it! Yes, it is only one hammered dulcimer -- this is a live, unedited performance in the woods.
444k views. beautiful music
This makes me want to learn to play the hammered dulcimer SOOOO BADLY!
This instrument only recently came to my attention and I'm already looking to get my hands on one
Though I can’t honestly say that I listen to it as often now, this helped me through some very hard times
Thank you
Thanks so much for sharing this, E! Thanks so much for listening.
ugh. I love this instrument
Thank you!
Such a beautiful song. Your hammered dulcimer playing is absolutely outstanding.
Gemini Dolly Why thank you! :)
This is my most favourite instrument, hands down. It is so rich in dynamic depth and versatility of articulation!
RinatyaNessim Thats awesome time hear!! You favorite instrument!? That is super exciting. Thank you for watching and commenting. You are appreciated!
It must be much more refreshing to listen to this performance in an actual forest than in front of PC...
and even more refreshing to play myself, if only I could play this well.
chappy0423 Thank you!!
Listening to your music brings swells of tears to my eyes. Not even because it's sad or melancholy, it's just so beautiful and I can't explain it but just...wow
Thank you! :-)
Wow, the left hand work in the bridge section is spotless and without any flaw... how? wow. Nice work and beautiful dulcimer song.
Lyrics Logic And Lullabies Glad you enjoyed it! :) It was a labor of love, and I'm glad to share it.
Just a reminder, Ed Verner = LLL and thanks for inspiring me to get a dulcimer and to plunk around with it. When I hear you play it is hard at first to pick the mallets up again, but alas the old urge to play eventually returns. Best to you and yours... God Bless
Listening while under the covid19 pandemic. Such relaxing tune.
I'm glad it helped you find relaxation during this uncertain time. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Incredible! I never heard of this instrument but I am instantly hooked!
Glad you like it! Please stay in touch!
This is wonderful!!!!
when i had a piano and would play with the windows open i would get the same response from the birds. they loved it!
Joshua, thank you so much from Germany ! 🙏
What a beautiful place to play your music - wonderful !
💛Ute
Ute Marten Thank you!! :)
This would make such a great Trance song in the early 2000's
I'm always consistently blown away by this instrument and the people who play it at high levels. You play the instrument with such care as well. The instrument stands out in the string family, and it stands proud. I'm definitely going to look into learning the hammered dulcimer if I ever save up some money, despite how different it may be compared to the rest of the string instruments I usually play.
Thank you, Joseph!! I appreciate your time watching this channel as well as the thoughtful comment. I hope you can learn this instrument, too. Here is a video I made that may help you know which instrument to get. ua-cam.com/video/NT_0KoQSni8/v-deo.html If you have any questions, please let me know. Best, Joshua
Oh geezers, this is beyond an explanation of beautiful music. So superb. Ahhhhh a breath of crisp clean heavenly air. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hotel California but captures the spirit of the majestic woods
Thanks for watching!
@@JoshuaMessick of course!
I’m about to make your songs my hiking and painting playlist, sir!
Even the crows were digging it... ☮🔥
Karl Miller Thanks for watching, Karl! :)
I am so impressed. I think this is what heaven sounds like.
This is the one I love best.wish they had someone to give lesson in my town. It's about 60- to 70. Miles away. .

Best music ever
Thanks! :-)
Ohhh, this makes my hair stand up and my spine kundalini tingle! My spirit soars with the beautiful frequency of this artist and his instrument! Every strike on the strings I feel in my body like thousands of champagne bubbles rising through me!
Little bit flowery but yeah same :)
Come unto me ye weary, is a beautiful hymn words written by William C. Dix and Music wrote by John P. Hullah
I’ll have to check it out.
Love your new album. It’s really peaceful and special. I downloaded it a few days ago and heard this song. Love it! Can’t pick a favorite song from your new album because they’re all amazing! :-)
JasminAlvarez1 Thank you for your support! It’s wonderful to hear you’re enjoying it. You are appreciated!
This is an all time favourite Joshua Messick track of mine, it is beyond gorgeous to me - the way it blends music and nature so seamlessly together never fails to take my soul to higher dimensions ❤️🌟
Thanks so much, Ed!! I'm so glad you enjoy it.
Dude...Woodland Dance is the best!! More renditions of it!!!
Thanks man! Yeah, Woodsong Wanderlust is included on my album Woodland Dance. Glad you enjoyed it!
Apologies as I meant to say I think Wanderlust is awesome! I think you know I love Woodland Dance already.
I enjoy listening to this
Thanks, Tom!
still so beautifull, my mom died this month, i wanted her to here it, now im playing it for her again
Thank you, Brandirose. Losing a parent is so difficult. I can relate -- I lost my Dad last year, and music was something that helped me immensely. I'm honored my music is providing you comfort during this time. Love and prayers are with you. Thanks for commenting. Best, Joshua
This song, in the words of Arundhati Roy, is Beauty to the layers...
Love to your music... from Pakistan
Thank you so much, Sajjad :) It’s wonderful to have a listener in Pakistan. Best, Joshua
This instrument is from Heaven.
Thank you! ;-) Glad you enjoyed it!
I can only wish the whole world was this BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
I just cried
I'm very glad to hear the music touched your soul.
so beautiful joshua
Thank you!
That is for sure a beautiful music instrument.
I remember landing in Guatemala C-A years back and there was a Xylophone there (keys made from the hard-woods of Guatemala) and it was so large that six people were playing it at the same time. Lots of amplitude without any electricity or speakers. The beautiful sound was awesome.
Sounds like an amazing instrument! Xylophone / marimbas are amazing percussion instruments -- I would have loved to see it. Thanks for watching the video and commenting -- glad you enjoyed it. Stay in touch! Best, Joshua JoshuaMessick.com
Thank you.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching, AJ!
So, I came across this while researching for a certain assignment given to us regarding composition. And I am so blessed to have come across this instrument because I have never heard something so beautiful and so pure. Joshua Messick, thank you so much. I owe my new obsession to you.
Oshin Hephzibah Wow! What a cool comment to read. This is awesome to hear. I’m glad you’ve found a new instrument and sound you enjoy. Thanks for watching! Stay in touch - JoshuaMessick.com
i dont know if you'll see this, but your music inspires great joy and i thank you for making it!
I did see it, and I am grateful for the comment! It is a real joy to hear this. Thank you! :)

Glad you enjoy it!
The crows at the end were a nice touch, albeit unintended. They really added to the feeling of the wilderness. Glad you decided to leave them in the recording
