A sound worth discovering

What is a
mountain dulcimer?

The mountain dulcimer is easy to begin learning—even if you’ve never played a musical instrument before. With roots in the Appalachian tradition, this fretted string instrument is usually played across the lap. It can be strummed or fingerpicked, producing a gentle, ringing sound.

From familiar folk melodies to hymns and contemporary songs, this little instrument opens up a wonderful world of music.
