Of his many musical talents, John McCutcheon’s mastery of the hammered dulcimer may stand out as most surprising.  Few other players anywhere can draw the shimmer, bounce and harmonies out of this percussive stringed instrument as well as he does.  Treat yourself to his “Hammer Dulcimer!” online concert on Sunday, April 16, and hear the range of music he plays.

As appetizers, check out McCutcheon’s Leviathan or his medley of Loggerman’s Breakdown and Dulcimer Reel.  Use caution; you might suddenly get up and dance.

The April 16 online show will begin at 4 p.m. Pacific Time.  A ticket also gives you unlimited replays within 48 hours after the live show. This could be handy if a later time is more convenient or if you want to hear some particularly dazzling tunes again.

Get tickets at links from this page.  Standard price is $20 plus a $4.60 processing fee.  Other options in the drop-down menu are discounts for students or unemployed people and premiums for a family/household ticket or music supporter ticket.  A bit of the ticket money goes to the Pasadena Folk Music Society, which will help us present in-person shows in future months.
