Maureen Sellers - Simply Gospel, Book Two

Maureen Sellers- Simply Gospel Book 2

I absolutely love this book! It reminds me of my childhood when hymns were the thing in a church service. I can sing to myself when I play these songs. I am also using this book for some of my students who love the traditional hymns. Easy for them to learn because the tab is easy to read.

Another Good Resource

I was pleased to find this Collection put together buy Maureen Sellers, as it contained several songs not yet in my collection. There were some good morsels from a historical perspective in her introduction regarding the use of hymns on this side of the pond. What would have been nice, would have been even more information on the use of the hymns as we think of them today. Of course, had she done so, we would have had a history book, rather than a songs book. In the “Using This Book” portion of the opening comments, there were also some other good tidbits, such as making your own capo. On that aspect, you find it a whole lot easier to order a capo from Folkcraft. She also gives some good advice to those just beginning to work with the mountain dulcimer. My thanks to Folkcraft for having this book in their great selection of books that you can’t seem to find anywhere else.

Simply Gospel Book Two by Maureen Sellers

Her books range from Easy to Difficult for me as a beginner. The songs are arranged in versus so you can sing as well as play. There is a large variety of hymns. This book addresses chords and finger positions for them. Excellent learning tool. I am excited to get book four.
