Welcome to DSNI

Hi! We’re so glad you decided to visit the Dulcimer Society of Northern Illinois (DSNI) web site. We hope you will visit us in person and after participating in the fun of our meetings consider becoming a DSNI member.

Our members range in skill from beginner to advanced and all are welcome here. You will find our members a genial group and eager to share their musical knowledge.

Some of the great DSNI membership benefits are:

  •  Discounted fees for our special guest artist led workshops

  •  A membership packet of some of our favorite music

  •  Access to the music resource box

  •  Mailings of new DSNI newsletters, which frequently include an
      interesting music arrangement.

  •  Knowing that you are helping to spread the joy of the dulcimer
     and keep the club a vibrant place to come for music and
     fellowship

For our 2008/2009 program year, which runs from September through May, dues are only $20 ($15 for persons 65 or over). The Dulcimer Society of Northern Illinois is a non-profit club with all of the work done by volunteers. Only the special guest artists receive a fee. The membership dues cover the expenses directly incurred by the club, such as postage and photocopies.

DSNI has been around since 1980, providing a welcoming environment to musicians and spreading the joy of the dulcimer. This has been made possible by the work of volunteers and DSNI membership. We encourage you to join in and help to continue the dulcimer tradition.

We look forward to making music with you!
