I’m 16 episodes in from the beginning and have learned so much about the history, some current players and some of greats of the past. I can’t wait to listen to the rest of them. I’m also saving for my own dulcimer thanks in huge part to this podcast!

I love hearing the great fondness Judy Collins has for Richard Farina and his amazing, mythical contribution to the lyrical sound of the mountain dulcimer. Patricia’s wonderful in-depth interview reveals an extraordinary break for the mountain dulcimer in its musical debut on Judy’s fifth album...Read full review »

Here is an updated review: Wayne & Patricia just keep following their muse and the music and sharing it widely and with heart. This is one of the treasures in my inbox: a new Hearts of the Dulcimer episode!

Essential listening if you love the mountain dulcimer. The interviews are well done, production quality is great, and the music samples are well chosen and long enough to be satisfying.

I just listened to the Appalasia Podcast, and it was so informative and entertaining!! I am familiar with the group, have both of their recordings, and have heard them live recently.

I truly appreciate being able to listen to Wayne and Patricia's podcast. Having moved away from my dear instructor, Paul Furnas, I am far away in New Mexico. While there are dulcimer players here, none seem to possess the stirring awareness about the dulcimer that the two of you have. ...Read full review »

It’s wonderful that this podcast exists for such a foundational American instrument, made while some of the greats of the dulcimer music scene are still with us. It captures the beauty of the instrument and the devotion of people to its preservation and development. I loved it.

Two years ago or so I adopted my first dulcimer and it has been a wonderful experience. Yesterday Jerry Rockwell let me know about Dulcimuse and Heart of the Dulcimer. After listening to the podcasts about Judy Klinkhammer, I am recommending these to all my dulcimer friends and look forward to...Read full review »

I really enjoy listening to Hearts of the Dulcimer podcasts! The last two episodes about Judy Klinkhammer were very well done. Although I never met her, I know she was a kindred spirit. I especially liked the glimpse into the lives of my old friends, Mary and Jack Giger. I'm glad they are...Read full review »

That there is so much to say about the dulcimer? I am learning volumes, but mostly I’m enjoying the music. On my subscription list!

Hearts of the Dulcimer is one of the coolest things to happen to the mountain dulcimer since Jean Ritchie brought it out of the hills of Kentucky.
Yensid1249 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/03/15
Patricia and Wayne have done their homework and paid their dues: historical research, interviews at the source, travel to the music’s roots, performing live on this most unusual instrument, filmmaking, podcasting, plogging on Facebook, all in pursuit of understanding and enjoying the mountain...Read full review »

From the podcast, I was inspired to check out both Joni Mitchell's and Mimi & Richard Fariña's music and got to know a little bit about a lot of people active in the mountain dulcimer community. I decided to start playing the dulcimer a few weeks ago, and the podcast definitely played...Read full review »
