Sound files of Citterns on Ice vol III

This is an electronic version of the printed booklet coming with the CD of Citterns on Ice volume III. It contains additional information, such as the editing done with some of the contributions. Between brackets is the type of editing: [N] is for volume normalization, [NR] is for noise reduction, [3D] is for artificial "stereo" added with Adaptec's Spin Doctor.
Here is also the place to find extra's such as sheet music or pictures. Click on the thumbnail pictures to open a bigger picture.
The sound files linked under the contributor's names are mp3 format, and should play fine with MS Mediaplayer 6 and higher.

The quality is not like CD quality, but is amazingly good considering that it is only 56kb/s, in other words: a standard ISDN line should be able to play it while downloading.

Well, for the time being the files are encrypted with 160kbs. The provider that stored the original site (Lycos) suspended me when the files were downloaded twice. Not only that, they also kept me from the FTP account so that I was unable to rescue my files :-(.

I managed to salvage the text portion by looking at an archived page, but I lost the pictures. Coming back soon, I hope. Done. Click on the picture to download a bigger version.

When streaming playback doesn't go without problems, better right-click to download (save target as) to your own hard disk first.
Clicking (or right-clicking) on the name should start playing or downloading.
If you see this page as an alternative to ordering the double CD from this site, please don't do it all at once, otherwise this free webspace the files are stored on will probably be history.
Don't forget to look at the small print at the bottom of this page :-)

A6 Bob Loomis (3:03) All the Way (Bob Loomis) [NR,3D, from cassette]
Weber Saga 1 octave mandolin, tuned GDAD, no capo.
Enjoyed doing this tune on OM tuned as bouzouki. Had always done it on mandolin or guitar before. Sounds nice, I think, in this setting. Of course, I have since gotten rid of the Weber. Have a Moon OM that is really nice and has a shorter (20.5") scale that fits my smallish hand better. Thanks for the opportunity to go public with one of my own tunes.

Disk B
B1 Rob Klajda/ The Lash (6:02) Pagan Princess/ The Schumakers' Journey (Robert Klajda Copyright 2001 Silent J (BMI))
Robert Klajda: Cittern and Vocals. The cittern is a Westerman (probably technically a 10 string bouzouki because of the long scale) tuned GDGDG. No capo. Adrian Bagale: Mandolin (1917 Gibson A), Electric Bagpipe Guitar Loop, Mike Lynch: Accordion, Tom Beller: Bass Guitar, Jason Scott: Drums, Kitty Donohoe: Backing Vocals, Doug Berch: Whistle
Appeared on: The Lash - Every Direction (Amber Records 31701) orderinfo: http://www.thelash.com/
There's nothing more spiritual sounding to me than my Rich Westerman cittern. When I first bought it I had no idea how to play it, so I wrote Pagan Princess- just so I'd have something to play on this beautiful instrument. The ethereal harmonic quality of the Westerman inspired me to write a song about a spiritual seeker; the tune at the end is a tribute to The Schumakers- a local jazz trio who often opened shows for us. Two of the 19 year old members died in a house fire a couple years ago, so I gave this tune to them.

Myself, solo, on a Davy Stuart 10-string bouzouki tuned CGDAD.
Two tunes I learned from Matt Molloy's CD. My right hand technique is some sort of "clawhammer"-fingerpicking style, with mainly the indexfinger making the tune. It works for me; a plectrum always slips from my fingers.

B11 John Furlonger and Friends (4:18) All That He's Done for Me, Girls of Ivory, Herb's Jig, Rita Baker's First Set Tune (Trad.) [N,NR,3D]
John Furlonger: McDonald Type 1, 61cm scale archtop bouzouki, tuned FCgd, capoed at 2nd fret to give GDae, Peter Percival: Maton guitar, Ian Shepherd: Peter Coombe Model A-5 mandolin. We recorded this track in Peter's loungeroom, direct to DAT using two AKG microphones in a cross pattern.
"All That He's Done for Me" was collected from accordion player Harry Cotter, who lived at Binalong in New South Wales. Harry learnt the tune about 1909 from Sid Cross. "Girls of Ivory" (also collected as "Girls of Ivy") is another tune from Harry Cotter, recorded in 1970. At that time, Harry had been playing this tune for about 50 years and could not remember its source. "Herb's Jig" and "Rita Baker's First Set Tune" we learnt from the playing of Harvest Moon, a band from Melbourne, Victoria. Both of these tunes were collected by the late John Meredith and were published in his two volume "Folk Songs of Australia".

B13 Jon Garelick (2:13) Duck River (Appalachian Fiddle Tune) [NR]
Me on everything: Crump octave mandolin in GDAE for the melody; same instrument tuned GDAD for some droney chords; my old '63 Fender Precision bass; and doumbek (Middle Eastern hand drum).
After years of neglecting my mandolin for my zouk, I finally picked the little guy up again this summer for a trip to Old Time Week at Augusta Camp in West Virginia. I've been obsessed with old time mountain music ever since. For COI III, I gave an unconventional spin to one of the old fiddle tunes, playing it on the OM instead of the mandolin and adding electric bass and doumbek to further corrupt the tradition.

Called a "bhajan", or folk hymn, this song is intended to be unaccompanied, but goes well with my Brock cittern's sonorous support. I tried editing it for length, but with poor result; it needs to be whole. It was recorded at home, mixed and mastered elsewhere. On many levels, Hamare Pyare is a personal work to be shared among friends.
