Psalterium or tambourin a cordes is a stringed musical instrument, and means the same thing as psaltery. In specific usage, this name denotes a form of long psaltery that is tuned to provide drone chords. Sometimes called a string drum, it is usually used as rhythm accompaniment with a form of tabor pipe. It is also known as tambourin de Bearn in French, ttun-ttun (IPA: /cun'cun/, named after the sound emitted) in Basque or chicoten in Aragonese. Some authors have called into question the inclusion of the Pyrenean stringed drum under the name of psalterium. It is slung on the arm or over the shoulder of a player who uses the same hand to play the pipe, while striking the strings with a linen covered stick held in the other hand. The 6 strings (3 sets) are most often tuned in octaves that match the keynote of the Tabor pipe, such as Cc Cc Cc or Dd Dd Dd etc.
