Percy Danforth started playing the bones in 1908 when he was eight years old. He was the master of two-handed bones playing. Percy says, "Playing the bones with one hand isn't playing. It's just rattling the bones." This is the definitive work on playing the bones! Learn to Play, The History of the Bones, The Life and Times of Percy Danforth, Lots of Great Music with Percy and some of Mendocino's finest musicians. Learn all Percy's secrets, alignment, tone, subtlety, and how to hold the bones. There are examples of rolls, taps, triplets, flams, syncopated rhythms, different time signatures, and segments using slow motion video. Included are lots of examples with live (and very lively) music. You need 2 pair of bones to get the most out of this video.

I bought this bodhran after I broke my more decorative one while protesting. I’m one of four women who are Drumming for Democracy every week at our local Saturday protest.
The DG-255 I received from Lark in the Morning was easily as beautiful as presented. The padded gig bag is a huge plus as well.
The guitar is a solid and has a bigger, more forward sound than I'd anticipated which suits me just fine. It plays easily, surely even more so after I have a guitar tech get it set up for me.
Nice people, excellent service, quick shipping. Nothing not to like here.
This whistle has a beautiful, warm tone and is very responsive. I have used a variety of whistles (including other Kerry whistles), and this one is my favorite to play. While recording my latest album, I needed a whistle in this key pretty quickly, and Lark in the Morning had this delivered to me within a few days. I highly recommend this instrument, and Lark in the Morning is a fantastic place to purchase from with excellent customer service.
I already play a mountain lap dulcimer, but this one gives the instrument a whole different dimension to playing. Really beautiful craftsmanship. Thus isn’t a toy, but a lovely wooden instrument. Very easy to play!
Multifacsited approach to something fun to do!
