Hearts Of The Dulcimer Podcast - Episode 6
Rick Scott - Canada’s premier dulcimer player
We had fun talking with Rick, who is a dulcimer player, storyteller, actor, and singer songwriter. Rick has been playing the dulcimer for more than four decades and has received several awards and honors for his work with children’s music. This episode has lots of great music as well as entertaining stories about being a dulcimer player.
If you listened to our episode about Joni Mitchell, you heard Rick tell his story about getting picked up by Joni while hitchhiking in Canada in the 1970s.

Wow, it makes all our work worthwhile when we hear comments like yours objectsession. Especially the part about starting to play dulcimer. That was one of our major goals in making both the film and the podcast ... hoping that people who have never played would start playing. Thanks again!

Sheryl, Thanks so much for listening! We have more episodes in the works. Wayne and I are so excited about doing this podcast. We LOVE hearing from people who've listened. We're planning to share some listeners' comments in a future episode, so if anyone is interested in this, go to http://dulcimuse.com/podcast to share your comments or suggestions.
Dusty, We've had the same experience as you ... while making our film, many people had a special story about the dulcimer. I have one too! What is it about the dulcimer that brings out these feelings and special experiences that other instruments just don't? The mountain dulcimer is truly a magical instrument ...

My husband Wayne Jiang and I have started a new podcast exclusively about the mountain dulcimer called Hearts of the Dulcimer Podcast. This podcast is dedicated to everything about the mountain dulcimer: the dulcimer’s history, dulcimer music, dulcimer builders, dulcimer communities, dulcimer culture, and much, much more!
Hearts Of The Dulcimer Podcast - Episode 1

Joni Mitchell's Dulcimers
In episode 2, we have two stories about Joni Mitchell's dulcimers. Joellen Lapidus tells the story of selling Joni a duulcimer at the 1969 Big Sur Folk Festival. Rick Scott recalls being picked up by Joni while hitchhiking in Canada in 1971.

Hearts Of The Dulcimer Podcast - Episode 3
Scheitholt Part 2
In this episode, we continue the exploration of the scheitholt:
- What kind of music was played on the scheitholt?
- Why did it fade into obscurity?
- And why is there a surge of interest in the scheitholt?
To answer these questions, Wayne spoke with Ken Koons, Ryan Koons, and Ken Longfield, who are musicians and instrument builders. They have built their own scheitholts and have done research on the instrument.
