I asked composer Conni Ellisor to write a piece for me and full orchestra that was Bach-like. Because of the dulcimer’s diatonic nature, she leaned toward a Vivaldi style. I performed it with orchestra, and it pushed me to rethink both right- and left-hand technique. We’ll use it as a focused workout to maximize control, efficiency, and speed. It’s also a piece I still use all the time as a warm-up. Demo videos, easy registration links, and waiting lists at http://stephenseifert.com/qdf19.
