Beautiful tab

I have been playing dulcimer for less than a year but before that , I played banjo. I missed playing melodic style and then I saw a video of Larry Conger’s, Wayfaring Stanger from the September … tab book. It is exactly what I wanted and I have not stopped practicing these beautiful pieces.Thank you, Larry from a very happy picker.

Chord/Melody Style

It fits the intermediate skill set range of players. It has a very good variety of songs, from Celtic to Christian to early Americana. It has been a joy to practice and I recommend getting it.

Beautiful book

This book is well printed and easy to read no measures that are crunched together and difficult to read. The songs are well chosen and fun to play

September delivered early

The book September on the Mississippi was highly recommended by friends who have it. I am so glad I finally ordered mine. Richard told me I missed the daily mail and it would be the following week before he would ship it. He must have taken it to the post office that day because it was delivered early the following week. Thank you Folkcraft !

Conger - "September on the Mississippi"

I love Larry Conger’s books. The arrangements are pretty and are playable by a “fair-to-middling” player like me.

His song - September on the Mississippi was the reason I bought the book. But all the songs are great. He does some of the best arrangements ever.
