A big thank you to Mississippi and Texas for hosting concerts and for the great turn out! It was a joy to play with my long-time friend and incredible cellist Max Dyer. The kindness and support I experienced is such an encouragement. I appreciate each and every one of you!

In 2012, I played Christmas music while Charles Dickens’s great-great & great-great-great granddaughters read “A Christmas Carol” during a festive banquet. Wow, this was a special memory! Here is a photo with his granddaughters.

⛰🔥 I live in a part of the country that is so beautiful (the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina), that travelers from everywhere come here for a destination vacation. Tour groups and retreats are celebrating Christmas at the Assembly Inn in Montreat and Christmount in Black Mountain. This week Stephanie and I have spent evenings by the fireside playing favorite carols on Hammered Dulcimer and Celtic Harp, and getting to know new friends. Thank you for that opportunity! #JoshuaMessick #HammeredDulcimer #Dulcimer #DulciForte #CelticHarp #Composer #LiveMusic #ChristmasMusic #HolidayMusic #ChristmasConcert #HolidayConcert #BlueRidgeMountains #AshevilleNC #BlackMountainNC #BlackMountainNorthCarolina #Montreat #AssemblyInn #Christmount

One of the most delightful ways to share music is through house concerts. Friends gather for some light refreshments and pull up a chair for a front-row-seat experience. Get to know the artist and the instrument, and be transported to a world of imagination. 🎵 This weekend our holiday season started in the Atlanta, Georgia area. Visit JoshuaMessick.com for seasonal recordings and more! #JoshuaMessick #HammeredDulcimer #Dulcimer #DulciForte #Composer #LiveMusic #ChristmasMusic #HolidayMusic #AtlantaGA

Recently Stephanie and I have had the joy of sharing music locally for various tour groups in North Carolina. I like to keep it conversational and talk about the unique history of the Hammered Dulcimer and how music has formed my story. We love meeting new people!

🎵✈️ I travelled with my DulciForte to new places this past weekend! Thank you for the great turnout in Oregon at the Jacksonville Presbyterian Church and a house concert! My favorite part of being a full-time musician is performing live concerts. I enjoyed collaborating with Paula Garett @pgarrettmusic (violin) and Michael Farley @michaelfarley (guitar). Thanks to Dustin and Caroline Jernigan @carojernigan for hosting me and to Paula Garrett for the hard work promoting both concerts. Jacksonville, I look forward to visiting you again in the near future! #JoshuaMessick #HammeredDulcimer #DulciForte #Dulcimer #JacksonvilleOregon #JacksonvilleMusicScene

👉🏻NEW MUSIC! ‘Voyager's Tale’ Link in bio! 😀 “After a peaceful evening listening to Gregorian chant, I began composing a chant-inspired melody on my hammered dulcimer. While I was satisfied with this sketch, it wasn’t a complete composition. Several years later, I reimagined the piece with a much faster tempo, four contrasting sections, and additional instruments. This is a notable departure from the original inspiration, isn’t it? Voyager’s Tale was super fun music to create, and I hope you have an enjoyable, adventure-filled listen. And... there might be a few plot twists along the way. Personally, I imagine a medieval voyage to distant lands. Where does the music transport you?” #JoshuaMessick #HammeredDulcimer #Dulcimer #DulciForte #composer #cello #percussion
