Masters of the Dulcimer – CD (Volume 1)

Description

Sue Carpenter is one of the artists featured on “Masters of the Mountain Dulcimer” which includes her medley arrangement of  “Greensleeves/ Scarborough Fair”.  The first in a series of recordings by Susan Trump, this CD is an anthology of who’s who of dulcimer greats.  A showcase of dulcimer techniques, styles, and repertoire covering traditional American, British Isles, and contemporary music, the CD is recommended both as an overview for new players and as a treat for dulcimer sophisticates.
