The Dulcimer community is fortunate to be supportive of each other!  We've had to make a substitution because of Bradley Ellis' illness.  We wish him health and healing and welcome Rob Brereton who will step in!

Bradley Ellis, also a National Champion, is the final instructor for this one-day festival.  Watch him play with Erin Mae Lewis here

Another one of our instructors, Leo Kretzner, uses his 4-Equidistant String set up to play this jig with a descending bass line! Watch here .

When I first started listening to the clip you posted by Grant Olson I though I had the playback speed set to 1.5.  No!  He really is that fast!  And he's playing on a dulcimer made of styrofoam! Too cool!

Sue Carpenter, National Mountain Dulcimer Champion, is another one of our faculty.  Here she is playing her arrangement of Oh Susannah in 4-Equidistant String Style.

Grant Olson, National Mountain Dulcimer Champion, is one of our faculty.  Here he is playing  Mole in the Ground , in 4-Equidistant String style, on his hand-crafted styrofoam dulcimer.

Aubrey Atwater, another of our faculty, is playing at the QuaranTUNE Dulcimer Festival here

One of our faculty, Thomasina Levy, plays a 4- Equidistant String arrangement of her song  Legacies and Heirlooms here
