Tuned to D-A-d, a Mountain Dulcimer is perfect for playing Pentatonic Minor and Blues Scales in keys OTHER than D!

Each week we'll have tunes which make use of the skills we are gaining and sharpening.

Using the Dulcimer Layout to play Blues Chords

We will get comfortable playing back-up chords for typical 12-bar blues progressions in several keys.

Swing Rhythms and other skills

like string bending, tremolos, and chunking are some of the special things we'll explore for playing this genre.

Steve Eulberg has over 37 years of experience

discovering, playing and teaching hammered dulcimer.  He earned a Master of Music Education from Boston University with a goal of teaching traditional music on traditional instruments.
