It was love at first sound for George when he heard the Mountain Dulcimer and the Hammer Dulcimer back in 1998. Although an accountant by profession, he is a Folk musician at heart and has been playing acoustic folk music on these two instruments ever since.

George has taught hammer dulcimer in group and individual settings for several years. His former students range in age from nine years to, well, somewhat older than nine! He succeeded his teacher and mentor, Jeanne Page, as the instructor for the Introduction to Hammered Dulcimer course offered through UNM’s Division of Continuing Education. George also was a student of and performed with the late Michael Carlson, master instructor of the Mountain Dulcimer.

George has been a member in a number of acoustic folk ensembles that have performed publicly in many venues from Albuquerque to Jemez Springs. He currently performs in Doublin’ with good friend and Celtic harper extraordinaire Kathy Mille Wimmer.

He is available for instruction at Apple Mountain Music and you may reach him by telephone at (505) 897-0189 or by e-mail at gemiles47@msn.com.
