About Dulcinea’s Music

Once upon a time, a handsome young knave from the mountains of the north was visiting a tropical southern peninsula.  Wandering through the streets of a small hamlet, he chanced upon a faire.  Citizens from far and wide had gathered for food and song and dance.  An army of minstrels was entertaining the crowd with their songs and tales. Our knave paused to purchase a strange sausage from a vendor, for it was, after all, the dawn of a hot, dog-like kind of day.  Suddenly, he heard behind him the haunting sound of an ancient instrument known as a Hammered Dulcimer played by a beautiful young maiden.  The knave knew at once, this woman would be his partner in music and in life. 

 And so it came to pass.  And they were dubbed Dulcinea after Don Quixote’s love by Mistress Debbie of Jamieson for the sweet sound of their instruments and married by Michael of Clan Campbell.  And the knave and maiden have come to be known as Dulcinea's Music.  And, so, they ply their skills as instructors and traveling musicians and printers throughout the realm.
