Hey dulcimer players!!
I am delighted to announce that I will be teaching mountain dulcimer at Maine Fiddle Camp in June! Here's a chance to eat, breathe, and sleep traditional music and dulcimer in particular for a week in central Maine! We meet at a rustic camp in Maine by a pond, lots of music and dancing all week, food by the incredible "Second Breakfast" - mostly organic, mostly local fare. There are three or four class sessions each day (that may vary depending on the number of students at each level) plus concerts, guided jam sessions, swimming time, dances, all focusing on the various traditional music found in Maine. How does Appalachian dulcimer fit in? Well, I've been living and performing in Maine for almost 30 years, for starters. Anything I've played is fair game, and that's a lot of music.... And the Appalachian mountains end here, at Baxter State Park... of course it makes sense! There's lots of time to investigate whatever direction you're interested in in an intimate setting.
