We're proud to bring you this Shelley Stevens' "Baker's Dozen" book. This is Volume 4 in the series, and it is full of traditional Shaker melodies. You probably don't know many of these tunes, but you should - they're important to our musical traditions, and likely had a significant influence on later pieces that you do know.

All songs are in DAD tuning, and a surprising number of them are in E minor (capo 1). Each piece includes both standard notation and dulcimer tablature.

This book is published by Folkcraft® Instruments, under the Fingers Of Steel® imprint.

17 pages.

A Fun Little Dose of Music

All of Shelley's books give you a chance to learn a few songs of a particular type. Think of them as the hors d'oeuvres before a meal. If you really click with the music, you can go and find more of it.

Bakers’ dozen

It was a miracle. I needed 10 copies of this book immediately and I caught Richard as he was moving out of his current office. He said he could get them to to me. AND HE DID. Ten gorgeous, spiral bound copies arrived early. Thank you, Richard.

Patriotic Tunes by Stevens

Nice variety of songs….some familiar, and some new challenges as well with interesting playable arrangements.
