Jody Plays Renaissance, Classical and Celtic Music
She delights in finding and adapting pieces that sit well on the dulcimer but aren't normally heard on the instrument, mining material from the likes of J. S. Bach, BBC television shows, the Allman Brothers, and Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson.
Jody is also an innovative piano player with a style all her own, by turns driving a powerful rhythm for a rollicking reel or softly lilting a gentle waltz.
Nominated as best folk instrumentalist by the Washington Area Music Association, Jody's performance credits include the Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Folger Shakespeare Library, the Smithsonian Institution, the Kennedy Center, and the White House. She was a founding member of the D.C.-based folk trio, Ironweed, and currently performs with the award-winning Celtic bands, MoonFire and Connemara.
"Deftly balancing the artful and the playful...lovely, lively, and shimmering...imagination and musicianship are equally evident." - The Washington Post
"Jody's dulcimer playing is impeccably clear, confident and precise. Her arrangements are wonderfully developed...superb." - Dulcimer Players News
