Rob Brereton is considered one of the pioneers in contemporary mountain dulcimer playing. His years of studying
classical guitar have polished his playing style while his degree in music theory and composition has given him a
fresh approach to arranging. Rob was one of the first dulcimer players to arrange extensively in the chromatic 1-3-5,
and other alternate tunings. Although he specializes in the standards and early jazz tunes of Duke Ellington, George
Gershwin, and the like, Rob is equally adept at playing the more traditional styles and dulcimer repertoire. He has
taught all levels of dulcimer at most of the major dulcimer festivals across the country. We're proud and pleased
he'll be adding Redwood Dulcimer Day to this list!
Admission to Redwood Dulcimer Day (includes three workshop sessions and evening music circle):
