What's New? Many of the Workshop handouts for classes I teach at dulcimer festivals are now available online
I play a 4 octave Cloud Nine 17/16/8 chromatic dulcimer (pictured at the left) made
in Ohio by Michael Allen. Previous instruments included an R.L. Tack Pro*3,
and Dusty Strings D500B and D10 models.
