Steve Eulberg stands within the tradition of handmade, acoustic, home-grown music, giving life to old songs and tunes and songs by passing them on. He also stretches the boundaries of musical instrumentation by playing jazz, blues and bossa nova on traditional instruments. He brings virtuosity and surprise to performance and thoughtful songwriting which utilize humor, bringing new perspectives to embrace the broken lives and tattered fringes of life and re-weave them into strands of hope. The warm vibrations and resonance of wood & strings inspire a hope he is compelled to share with audiences.The hammered dulcimer is present in cultures across the globe, the mountain dulcimer has crossed cultural boundaries to be adopted by people outside of its origins. There is an ancestral resonance that people feel when hearing these instruments which brings a human tribal unity to those in the audience.
If you want to advance your playing and technical skills Steve is the teacher foe you. When the bug hit and I wanted to become a better player i needed guidance. I got that and so much I more from Steve. Through his patience and teaching style I have been able to set and meet goals I had only dreamed of. If you begin to go blank he sees it and finds a way for you to understand.

Steve is a great teacher
I studied hammer dulcimer with Steve. I appreciated that he was patient, able to explain material in multiple ways and find music that I enjoyed learning. He has a deep knowledge of music but is able to explain things at a beginner level. Plus he is fun.

Steve is thorough yet not complicated. I’ve skipped around to other teachers online but I always go back to Steve. He gives me information that’s understandable and easy to practice. He always finds the right place to pause for me to practice before moving forward with his lessons.
