Special afternoon workshops with a choice of instructors. Mini-concerts by staff and guest artists. Guy comes from a background of study in jazz and performance on the saxophone, having studied at Berklee College of Music in Boston, then playing with many jazz influenced musicians in the Boston and New York area. Classes meet Monday thru Friday, plus special activities until noon on Saturday. Small class size and plenty of personal attention make this an excellent opportunity for beginners to start out on the right foot, for intermediate players to freshen up their repertoires, and for advanced musicians to challenge themselves.
Complete beginners can learn to play a 'loaner' mountain dulcimer.
Evening activities include dances, a Wednesday evening gathering of local old-time musicians, jam sessions, song swaps student showcase. A Thursday night concert will feature the Spring Dulcimer Week staff. These rates are for 6 nights, tax included. Meals are available in the college cafeteria for cash or with meal tickets which may be purchased on arrival or at the door. If you cancel between March 17 and April 9, we will retain one half of full tuition price.
