User:Bdautoharp

I am an autoharp player living in Cedar Rapids, Iowa USA. My wife, who plays hammer dulcimer, and I usually perform at our church, but are starting to share our music more widely. We are both of the age to be retired from gainful employment, so have the leisure to explore our musical interests. My paternal ancestors originated in Wales, and passed through Scotland and Ireland on their way to the United States. My mother's ancestors were English Quakers who came to the US in the 1700's. So my musical interest mainly, but not exclusively, focuses on traditional music from all those places. The Traditional Tune Archive seems like a treasure to me. =bd=
