Where do you live & play your Dulcimer? (Part 2)

[JavaMom]

Thank you for the advice. Like I said, I don't have it with me - there was no room in the luggage this time! I will try what you have suggested as soon as I get the dulcimer! By the way, there are dulcimer players in New Mexico (that's where my family is from), but I don't know any personally. There used to be a lady in Capitan that my Mom knew. I don't know if she is still there or not. Thanks again for the advice!

Hi I am a beginner Dulcimer player that lives in Centralia Washington. Trying to find other players that want to get together. I play the Mountain Dulcimer. Happy to be here. Happy Holidays!

Hi all! I am a beginning dulcimer player. I fell in love with them while on our third vacation to Gatlinburg, TN. I am fron Milton, PA and am looking forward to learning a new instrument and making new friends!

Welcome to ED geothefisher! Are you aware of the Frosty Valley Dulcimer Friends who meet in Danville? You can find them under the clubs tab above. It is a good way to connect with some local dulcimer players.

Thank you! I'll have to look them up after the holidays!

You're welcome. The next time I get a notice of their meeting I'll send it to you.

I think I may have posted to this thread, before, but I'm not sure.

I've recently relocated back to Southern California, in and around Los Angeles and Riverside. I'd love to meet up with other dulcimer players in the area! I've never even played with another dulcimer player before, though I've been playing the instrument for a little over two years now and perform frequently.

Hi Scott,

There seems to be a fairly active community of mountain dulcimer players in the LA area. Check out Jennifer Ranger at the Dollmakers store in Monrovia. JoEllen Lapidus and Leo Kretzner both live in the area. There is/was a yearly festival at Dana Point. I usually try to visit Jennifer at her regular Friday night concerts in front of the store when I am in Van Nuys.

Thanks! Today happens to be Friday, and I'm not too far from Monrovia. I might just have to check that out.

I just bought a Dulcimer. I live in Southern Utah. I was hoping to find other players who live near me?
Anyone live in Southern Utah? You can reach me at: svanasch@yahoo.com.
I am a beginner on this instrument and would love to connect with another player.

Fayetteville, Arkansas is my home.
Nary far from it do I roam.
But on a good day I do love to play
music to dance and sway.

Medival sounds please my soul.
Purple dress when I am feeling bold.
Recorder Flute now the hammered dalcimer too.
Hopefully someday will make music for you.
