Originally from Brittany, a small Celtic country in western France, I first discovered the rustic folk instruments made by my paternal great grandfather, I became enthralled with the idea of experimenting with ways to make these primitive instruments sing.
With no realization that these crude wooden boxes with strings existed beyond Brittany, and no one to teach me, I developed a different playing style, not an american style, and only later learned that these same instruments existed in America as mountain dulcimers!

I've see your videos before. I really like how you've adapted the Dulcimer to playing with an ensemble. I'm listening to your Myspace page now, You are an Incredible player.

Welcome Cristian, glad that you have joined us. I have spent many happy times in Britany, if I did'nt live in the UK I would wish to live somewhere in Morbihan perhaps, I have played dulcimer there at some of the small village festivals, also at the Fete des Brodeuses, Pont-L-ABBE. Enjoy your time here. JohnH

Bienvenu au FOTMD, Cristian. Ta musique me plait beaucoup. Il y a plus que 20 ans, j'ai passe quelques mois a Rennes, mais je n'ai appris aucun mot de Breton.
