Celebration of Strings
Celebration of Strings: English Dance Music and our annual Hammered Dulcimer Showcase Friday, March 22, 8 pm Shepherd University Storer Ballroom The hammered dulcimer is alive and well in Shepherdstown, West Virginia; not only does the area boast two of the instruments most respected builders and designers, but also is home to the Upper Potomac Music Weekends, where hammered dulcimer players, fiddlers and other musicians share tunes and techniques and explore a range of musical styles over three days of workshops, concerts and jam sessions on Shepherd Universitys campus and the surrounding historic buildings several times each year. The concert this year features special guests, Belgian-born multi-instrumentalist Paul Oorts and pianist Dave Wiesler, who play inspiring dance music in such bands as Cabaret Sauvignon, Gigmeisters, and Goldcrest .
