Irish Bouzouki Lesson [Learn D Chord Variations] Start Today

[@dontbovver4413]

Good to see new bouzouki videos posted! Just dusted off my zouk need to relearn mostly everything!

[@samuelgoad7320]

thanks for this video, Im coming to the Bouzouki from the Seagull Merlin Dulcimer(tuned DADD) so the Bouzoukis (GGDDAADD) makes alot of sense but is still intimidating for a non musician. this video gave me some confidence that the modal chords im used to still apply in many ways!

This give me hope that one day I can actually play well in a session with a bouzouki

[@PatrickGraven]

Very good lesson, thank you for sharing that with me. I have recently bought an Irish Bouzouki and just getting used to the tuning (G,D,A,D) and finding it a bit tricky as I've been playing the guitar for over 15 years but it's just a matter of time and practice to get used to it. I appreciate videos like these, it's helpful as another thing I really wanted to see was the way someone else rests the instrument on their knee as the shape to the Bouzouki body is more rounded.

I have a Octave Mandolin can I take these Irish Bouzouki lessons to learn how to play it? I have been told that a Octave Mandolin is basically a short scale bouzouki, is that true?

[@pierstownsend1238]

What is the high pitched instrument that sounds kind of 'flute-esque'? Between 1:00-1:30

[@onlineacademyofirishmusic]

Hi Piers, that's a tin whistle.

[@Chriswoodworker]

You have a big Bouzouki if you don't mind me saying so... Whats the make?

[@jldrumm]

I think it's the big/large body Tobin.

[@drunkenviking]

Who made that bouz and where do I get it? :P

[@onlineacademyofirishmusic]

That's a Tobin from the UK.

[@aubreynoftall3830]

why do you call strings chords? dont you know the difference?

[@fflach_heulyn]

He's not saying 'chords' he's saying 'course'. On a stringed musical instrument a course is either a single string or two strings situated next to each other. So when he says 'D course' he's referring to the D string/s. Hope that helps.

[@smaldenjoveson]

A course is a set of two strings strung together and tuned the same. Mandolins and bouzoukis and intruments like that have courses.
