Light

Posted on March 7, 2026 by Dr. Crystal Grimes

This is an original tune I’ve posted before. Written in 2010, it is entitled Light. I wrote it on ukulele, then played it on harp. Here I play 7-string pentatonic lyre. This little instrument is more versatile than you might think!

Amazing Grace – 7-string Lyre

Posted on February 28, 2026 by Dr. Crystal Grimes

Yes, you can play harmony with only 7 strings! Enjoy Amazing Grace played on seven-string pentatonic lyre.

And my Lynda Lyre version with even more harmony:

Fairy Song on Lyre

Posted on February 11, 2026 by Dr. Crystal Grimes

This is a tune I wrote to go with a poem a few years ago. It sounds lovely and more magical, I think, on a lyre with steel strings. This one is a 7-string BJL pentatonic lyre in G Major.

Fairy Lullaby (Scottish Trad)

Posted on January 24, 2026 by Dr. Crystal Grimes

A lovely traditional Scottish tune played on Lynda Lyre with nylon strings

And on 7-string BJL pentatonic lyre. It’s possible to play harmony, even on a small instrument!

Double strung arrangement played on 2 BJL 19-string acoustic lyres.
