What is a psaltery?
The psaltery (or psalterium) is a historical string instrument that was often used in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It belongs to the zither family and usually consists of a flat, rectangular, trapezoidal or sometimes triangular resonator over which several strings are stretched.
Characteristics of the psaltery:
Strings: The strings can be made of gut, metal or other materials. There are psalteries with anywhere from a few to several dozen strings.
How to play: The psaltery is either plucked (with fingers or picks) or bowed with a bow, as with the so-called bowed psaltery.
Sound: The sound is bright and clear, and the instrument is well suited for melodies as well as harmonic accompaniment.
Use: The psaltery was used in both sacred and secular music. It was often used in court circles, but also in folk music.
The name “psaltery” comes from the Greek word “psaltérion”, which means a stringed instrument. It is often associated with the playing of psalms that were traditionally sung or accompanied.
Today, the psaltery is played mainly in the historical music scene or in traditional folk music.
