Mountain Dulcimer Instructor
Thank you for participating in the Kentucky Music Institute and being a student in my class! The virtual class is a great option for many people and I am proud to be part of the program.
I’ve been playing the mountain dulcimer for 30 years and have presented many workshops in the past 14 years. I started out playing by ear and was fortunate enough to have taken workshops with some incredible teachers who have helped me develop and expand my musical knowledge to include basic notation, composition, basic music theory and the joy of creating tablature to share with others.
The following is a list of the books I have authored:
Mountain Dulcimer Beginnings – for the beginning to advance beginner student
Level Two – for the advanced beginning and novice player
Celtic Favorites – for the novice and intermediate player
Sacred Hymns and Harmonies – for the novice and intermediate player
Mountain Melodies – for the novice and intermediate player
1.5 Fret Playbook – for the novice and intermediate player
