NC's Longest-Running Dulcimer Festival!
Nancy Galambush
I enjoy helping people experience the joys of making music, especially those who have wanted to play an instrument, but never had the opportunity or never believed they could do it.
In addition to coordinating the Waterbound Dulcimers in Kinston, NC, I teach at workshops and in my home; I play with Flat Mountain Dulcimers, Waterbound, and Dolce Dulcimers; and I enjoy meeting “dulcimer people.” As a matter of fact, most of my best friends are dulcimer people. If you don’t play a dulcimer, why not give it a try?
