This is a newly organized group of dulcimer players that welcomes players and would-be players of all skill levels. The mountain dulcimer, also known as the lap or Appalachian dulcimer, is an intriguing instrument developed in America. Descended from European antecedents, it was originally played in the hills and hollows of Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina. Today it is an increasingly popular musical voice beloved for its sweet, lilting qualities. No registration required.
