Dulcimer Jamboree

Nathaniel and his dad just returned from the Dulcimer Jamboree in Mountain View, AR. The Jamboree, which takes place at the Ozark Folk Center, draws mountain and hammered dulcimer players from all over the nation and includes three days of outstanding workshops and concerts and the South Regional Dulcimer Championship. Nathaniel competed for the first time during this year's jamboree and placed third in competition, which is sponsored by the Dulcimer Shoppe and McSpadden Dulcimers in Mountain View. He played "Black Mountain Rag" and "How Great Thou Art" in the first round and "Spanish Fandango" and "Wayfaring Stranger" in the final round.
