Jack Campin	Modes for Mudcatters: A Synthesis Primer (115* d)	RE: Modes for Mudcatters: A Synthesis Primer	11 Jul 18
If leeneia's dulcimer is a fretted mountain type, she'll be using modal reasoning all the time. With a dulcimer tuned to 2 sharps, you can play in: D major E dorian G lydian/major hexatonic F# minor/phrygian hexatonic A mixolydian B minor all of which are common modes in Anglo-American folksong. You don't need to know you're doing this if you're playing solo, but for playing with others a common language really helps.
