Reviews of
"The Sum of the Parts"

Simply one of the finest instrumental recordings I've had the joy of experiencing...a glorious celebration of how wonderful this instrument can sound, and how it can sing, in the hands of two sensitive and skilled musicians with huge hearts for music....The music ranges from Celtic, to Shaker anthems, to Broadway, to original compositions. ~Unsolicited review by El McMeen

 

Soulful, warm, sustaining, gentle, expressive...There is so much care and delight in the playing. It just exudes warmth and joy. ~Jerry Rockwell

 

I love the choice of tunes, the recording quality is excellent, the arrangements are imaginative and interesting, and the execution is flawless. ~Tull Glazener

 

...a beautiful collaboration of gentle dulcimer music that should be in everyone's collection. ~Heidi Cerrigione

 

If I were allowed only one mountain dulcimer album to take with me to a desert island, this would be the one.~Ken Longfield

 

...like a fancy seven-course meal. Each "part" is beautiful, but the experience of the whole is most satisfying and complete. It is truly a feast for the ears and the heart.~Judith Giddings
