Simplicity, warmth, authenticity... these are among the musical values that the mountain dulcimer embodies. 

The mountain dulcimer is a uniquely American instrument that lends itself well to acoustic genres including folk music, traditional hymns, and international/world music. It is a bridge between the Old World and the New, the ancient and the modern, and my musical repertoire (both instrumental and vocal) reflects such fusions.

My dulcimers are heralds of quiet joy, healing, and life well lived.

Multi-instrumentalist
Acoustic, electric, and bass guitar, cajon, egg shaker, and mandolin. 
I take old hymns and arrange them in acoustic instrumental arrangements. I also write original instrumental songs.

El dueto Cuerdas Celestiales que lo formamos: Evelina (violín) y Olivia (arpa) se complace en poner a su disposición este CD, esperando que sea de ayuda para ennoblecer, elevar y purificar los pensamientos del cristiano. Hemos estado tocando música instrumental sacra en iglesias del área de la Bahía de San Francisco desde el año 2009, pero no fue hasta el año 2012 que tomamos el nombre de Cuerdas Celestiales. Este dúo se creó con el propósito de ayudar con la parte musical en los diferentes servicios de la iglesia, y por tal razón hemos sido muy cuidadosas y discriminativas en la selección del estilo de música que tocamos. Hemos tratado de incluir himnos conocidos y que se han cantado a través de los años en los diferentes países de latinoamérica y otros donde se habla español.

The duet Celestial Strings: Evelina (violin) and Olivia (harp) is pleased to make this CD available to you, hoping that it will be of help to ennoble, elevate and purify the soul and mind. We have been playing sacred instrumental music in churches in the San Francisco Bay area since 2009, but it was not until 2012 that we took the name of Celestial Strings. This duo was created with the purpose of helping with the special music in different church services, and for this reason we have been very careful in the selection of the style of music that we play. We have tried to include well known hymns that have been sung over the years in different countries in Latin America, and others where Spanish is spoken.
