  • Steve Eulberg Biography Steve Eulberg
    Steve Eulberg Biography Steve Eulberg weaves mountain and hammered dulcimers with a variety of unusual instruments to create thought-provoking, smile-inducing, toe-tapping acoustic experiences. He is an award- winning multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter who has sung and composed for religious communities, union halls, picket lines, inter-faith retreats, mountain-top youth camps, and showcase concerts. He has been called an “Appalachian Jimmy Buffet” because of his personable stage presence and warm voice. Born and raised in the German-heritage town of Pemberville, Ohio, Steve was exposed to a variety of music in his home. Following early lessons on piano and trumpet, his first stringed instrument was his mother’s ukulele. He taught himself guitar and harmonica, and then built his first mountain dulcimer while in college. Seminary training then took him to the west side of Denver where he built his first hammered dulcimer. With these instruments, Steve was able to give voice to the Scottish, English, and Irish traditions to which he is heir. Steve has shared the stage with folk artists John McCutcheon, Bryan Bowers, Maggie Sansone, Emma’s Revolution, and Mundy Turner. He is a five-time National Winner in Mountain Dulcimer and a three-time National Finalist for Hammered Dulcimer. Steve has produced fifteen albums including “Fiddle Whamdiddle: Old School Old Time” with fiddler Vi Wickham (2012), A Piece of it All (2007), I Celebrate Life (2005), and Random Acts of Fiddling (2005, with Carole and Teresa Lundgren). His recordings have appeared on the Grammy ballot three different years; his music has been played on National Public Radio and on United Airlines Inflight Audio; and his “Soaring” was licensed by PBS’ RoadTrip Nation.

  • Amber Rogers Biography
    Amber Rogers Biography Amber Rogers is a talented multi-instrumentalist and band leader for Scenic Roots. She has been immersed in bluegrass and old-time American music since she was a little girl, beginning her music training with fiddle and piano at age four. By high school, she had learned to play most stringed instruments, and even tried her hand at bagpipes for a few weeks. She now commonly performs on fiddle, claw-hammer banjo, and hammered dulcimer; but can be found playing bass, guitar, or mandolin at bluegrass jams across the country. In addition to her instrumental mastery, Amber's voice is a driving force in Scenic Roots' sound, with a rawness reminiscent of the old Appalachian hills. Indeed, her voice has an innocence and purity that makes it instantly accessible and likeable. In 2010, Amber graduated from South Plains College's renowned bluegrass music program with an Associates of Applied Arts in Commercial Music, plus a Certificate of Music Business. There she honed her skills as a bluegrass fiddler, studied traditional Irish music, and learned about music business. She played in many ensembles, including the bluegrass audition-performance ensemble known as "Pickin' on the Plains." She was awarded Female Vocalist of the Year and Bluegrass Instrumentalist of the year during her time there. She has also placed in the Top 5 in the prestigious Walnut Valley Fiddle Contest (2010, 2011) and took 1st Place in the Kansas State Fiddle Contest (2011). Since 2010, Amber has toured extensively with Scenic Roots. She has taught art camps and private lessons, as well as managed the booking and record-keeping for Scenic Roots Music LLC.

  • JAZZ EDUCATION in ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN a Thesis Submitted to The
    JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL by LEE CAPLAN A Thesis submitted to the Graduate School-Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Jazz History and Research written under the direction of Dr. Henry Martin and approved by ___________________________________ ___________________________________ Newark, New Jersey May,2017 ©2017 Lee Caplan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS JAZZ EDUCATION IN ISRAEL By LEE CAPLAN Thesis Director Dr. Henry Martin Jazz Education in Israel is indebted to three key figures – Zvi Keren, Arnie Lawrence, and Mel Keller. This thesis explores how Jazz developed in Israel and the role education played. Jazz Education in Israel discusses the origin of educational programs such as the Rimon School of Jazz and Contemporary Music (1985) and the New School Jazz Program (1986). One question that was imperative to this study was attempting to discover exactly how Jazz became a cultural import and export within Israel. Through interviews included in this thesis, this study uncovers just that. The interviews include figures such as Tal Ronen, Dr. Arnon Palty, Dr. Alona Sagee, and Keren Yair Dagan. As technology gets more advanced and the world gets smaller, Jazz finds itself playing a larger role in humanity as a whole. iii Preface The idea for this thesis came to me when I was traveling abroad during the summer of 2015. I was enjoying sightseeing throughout the streets of Ben Yehuda Jerusalem contemplating topics when all of a sudden I came across a jam session. I went over to listen to the music and was extremely surprised to find musicians from all parts of Europe coming together in a small Jazz venue in Israel playing bebop standards at break-neck speeds.

Aubrey and her husband Elwood Donnelly have thirteen recordings and eight books to their credit. www.atwater-donnelly.com Rob Brereton was one of the first dulcimer players to arrange extensively in chromatic and other alternate tunings. Although he specializes in the standards and early jazz tunes of Duke Ellington, George Gershwin, and the like, Rob is equally adept at playing the more traditional Celtic, Appalachian, old time, and other dulcimer repertoire. Rob has taught all levels of dulcimer at most major music festivals and folk schools across the country. He has won several awards for his playing including a coveted Winfield National flatpicking award. He has been playing dulcimer for over 30 years and is an internationally recognized performer and instructor since his first CD, Someone to Watch Over Me, was released in 1992. David Schnaufer called Rob's playing "...strong and innovative." https://robertbrereton.com/ Heidi Cerrigione has been playing mountain dulcimer since 1999.
