4 Equidistant Dulcimer Day
DulcimerCrossing is pleased to host a day-long event that focuses on playing Mountain Dulcimer in a 4 Equi-distant string set up.
6 Teachers will gather at the beginning of the day with Ashley Ernst, editor and publisher of Dulcimer Players News.
They will each provide a workshop and then join together at the end for a round-robin concert.
All events are held on Saturday, March 11th and take place on Zoom.
