D is For Dulcimer: Glenn Morgan
Item Number: 242
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
This is a terrific album of primarily solo hammered dulcimer music, with a couple of tunes accompanied by Jim Wells on guitar. Nice selection of tunes. Most of them are Irish, but there's a couple of English/British Isles tunes as well as the Old Time tune "Whiskey Before Breakfast".
Glenn truly has great technique and musicality. This is one of those instruments that looks easier to play than it really is. He has a varied and substantial repertoire. Glenn must be considered one of the best examples of hammered dulcimer musicians in the United States.
