Inspired by a Jean
Ritchie poem of the same title, I Celebrate Life! is the
title track of a collection of original songs and tunes
written for Mountain and Hammered Dulcimer by award-winning
singer-songwriter and musician, Steve Eulberg.
In his hands, the dulcimers reveal their many different
characters: from old-time hoe-down, to sweet lyrical poetry,
to bent-note blues and mystical eastern drones. Landscapes
and portraits are painted with colorful hues as the listener
is transported from the shores of Lake Michigan to the snowy
springtime Rocky Mountains, from the gently falling first
flakes of winter to the Ozarks of Missouri, from the
Shenandoah Valley of Virginia to the brewing summer storms
of Colorado.
But more than a travelogue, these tunes are also sonic
journal of the artist's interior and exterior journeys.
Eulberg, a 4-time winner and 3-time finalist in the National
Mountain and Hammered Dulcimer Championships, has gathered
into one collection the tunes he's been composing for these
instruments since he began playing them 25 and 21 years ago.
This collection is his book is also entitled, I Celebrate
Life!
This recording is a sampling of 22 previously unrecorded
tunes. As one reviewer has commented, "This is a Double
Album of Original Dulcimer tunes...the best yet!"
I Celebrate Life! follows Eulberg's 2003 release, 'Twas in
the Moon of Wintertime ,LINK which was featured on United
Airlines Inflight Audio during the holiday season of that
year, and his 2001 release, Soaring LINK, whose title track
is featured in the soundtrack of the PBS television show
Roadtrip Nation (episode 10) which is airing this summer.
