Hope from on High E-mail

x-cover-for-web.jpg Our third and final holiday album!  New in 2008, this work especially features the hammered dulcimer, with a good deal of mountain dulcimer (including Ann Robinson's bowed bass dulcimer), flutes, whistles, psaltery, Celtic harp (by Ardie Boggs & Ann Robinson), guitar, bagpipe (by Peter Budnikas), and some keyboard by Henry Smith.  The two new compositions, often heard in concerts, called "Snowy River Ride" (the bicycling piece) and "Hope from on High" ("Paintbrush Canyon"), are recorded here for the first time.  61 minutes.
