 Because of the generosity of a good number of dulcimer players, we are moving forward with the creation of the world's second concerto for mountain dulcimer and orchestra! Conni Ellisor (http://www.ellisormusic.com/) is working on the piece now. I told her I would like to find out how far she can push me and this instrument. Not only am I looking forward to improving my skills, but I'm also excited to show the world what the dulcimer is capable of.
I want to send out a big, huge THANK YOU to all who believed in this project enough to support it financially. It's so cool that this is 100% fan supported! I'll premier the piece with the Tucson Symphony Orchestra during the 2011-12 concert season. I'll share more as things develop.
