Our aim is to give the Newsletter an added audio dimension. The latest edition of Dulcimer Junction continues to support the music and information printed in the Nonsuch Newsletter – and includes contributions from Nonsuch members – and links to a number of articles within the newsletter.

In this latest edition – Dulcimer Junction No.17 – we have an interesting mix of dulcimer music – used in a variety of settings. There are some tracks from the archives – we visit John Pearse’s Music Room in 1970 – and have a short sample piece of a stage performance which featured Chris Coe – brought to our attention recently, by Vic Gammon.

The Nonsuch Newsletter goes out to our members once a quarter, you can join here!
