The hammered dulcimer is a stringed musical instrument over a sound board, set on a stand, and played by a musician using mallet hammers. Hiring a dulcimer musician is a great way to add a unique instrument and beautiful sound to your next corporate party, private event, wedding or special occasion.

There are a few things you should consider when hiring a dulcimer player. First, be sure to listen to audio and watch video samples of the performer. You want to be sure you are satisfied with the sound and look of the performer before you book him/her. Next, get references and read reviews. Talk to people in the area who have seen the performer and/or have booked them in the past. Feedback is the best way to ensure you are going to be satisfied with your choice. Last, always get a contract. Read the contract carefully and work out any details in regards to deposit requirements, length of performance, scheduled breaks, attire, travel, and lodging. Watch for specifications made by the performer and be sure you can meet them.
