Peter Corser suggested I get in touch with you - and I apologise for not having done so before.  It's been a while since I was on FOTMD!

I also find your tunes delightful and would love you to join us sometime.  Would you be interested in playing with other mountain dulcimer players who live locally?  There's a small group meets close to Newport and the same people usually come across the bridge to Horfield, Bristol for the bi-monthly meets there.

Email me on reeve-black_revells@msn.com or use my contact form at Revels Music (www.revelsmusic.co.uk) for details.

Best wishes

I've now listened to several of your tunes and thoroughly enjoyed them all! Your playing is beautiful, clear and understated, letting the dulcimer show itself off. PLEASE keep them coming.

Thank you so much for the feedback! I’ve only been playing the dulcimer for a year or so and I’ve found it to be an instrument that sounds good at whatever level you play it. It also also allows you to find your own way of playing, to suit your capabilities and the music you want to play.
