Regular readers and contributors to this forum will, perhaps, know me as a rennaissance woodwind player, ex-of Rebec, a group who did the club and festival scene back in the 1970s/80s. At the time I played mainly woodwinds with a spattering of glockenspiel, guitar, bowed psaltery and other exotica. I played the Appalacian dulcimer also but not in the exquisite finger style played by such as Roger Nicholson. I have recently bought another, (my original went with my wife in the split!) an American made model and am very pleased with it. It has a lovely tone and responsive to play.
I am messaging to ask if anyone has any tips on good published tutors. I have the record Nonesuch for Dulcimer by Roger Nicholson as well as the tab booklet, both of which I bought many years ago and they have been gathering dust so I ahve decided to put them to good use. The tab booklet is lovely and the pieces quite challenging.
Any tips from anyone out there?
