Lessons for the Mountain Dulcimer

By Samuel E Burns

The Folk School of Chattanooga has recently moved to a new location on Rossville Avenue. On Friday the 20th when I stop by, they were having classes on the Mountain Dulcimer.

Neal Hellman is conducting the lesson. The school's co-founders are Matt Evans and Christie Burns. The venue is fairly small so most concerts at the Folk School offer limited seating and a chance for a very special evening with the artist.

The Folk School also contributes to house concerts and sessions at other venues around
Chattanooga.

The Folk School of Chattanooga's decision to relocate marks the start of a promising new chapter.  I encourage everyone to stop in and enjoy the music.
