Hammered Dulcimer Demo Time...

I'm doing a hammered dulcimer lecture/demo today at a local homeschool co-op, School on the Rock. A little history behind the instrument...a little playing...should be fun.

This is the only picture I have in my computer of me playing the dulcimer. This was taken a few years ago ~ note the LONG hair ~ on our other church's praise & worship team. I traded off between singing, flute, Irish penney whistle & hammered dulcimer...whatever was needed & fitting. :-)

Blessings from Ohio...Kim<><

  2. I wish I could be there :) . I love the sound of a hammered dulcimer, but it looks rather tricky to play. Have a great time.
    Blessings,
    Catherine :)

  7. Thanks for stopping by, Kim. I'd love to "see" your treasures from your Grandma! I love dishes and when they previously belonged to someone special in our lives it just makes the "history" so endearing to my heart. And how special to have your grandmother's apron! My grandma always wore an apron, too...but I don't have any of them. Hope things went well for you today.
