Do you play the dulcimer? Would you like to play with other dulcimer players?
Joining a club is a great way to improve your dulcimer playing ability and to make new friends. Dulcimer clubs welcome players of all ability levels – young and old – and often even provide opportunities to play in public venues. In this post, we compiled a list of several active dulcimer clubs in the Northeast part of the United States to get you started.
Some clubs are small, some are large – but each is committed to advancing the tradition of dulcimer playing in communities around the country. Joining a club is a great opportunity to relax and play with folks of like mind, and even learn a few tricks or two as well.
