Arlen, you kick ass on your hammered dulcimer! You always did! It was an honor to become a permanent part of one of your albums! -Douglas Bishop, an old musical comrade, and a fellow brother of the art of open-air performance

[panflutejedi]

Hello,

I saw your uploaded of Arlen Oleson, the hammered dulcimer player in Central Park, NYC, and I have been busting my butt trying to contact her/him. I cut a CD with arlen back in 1996, "Further Beyond the Pale", and I would really appreciate any assistance you could give! My e-mail is panflutejedi @ yahoo.com (without the spaces), and my name is Douglas Bishop!

[DragonerPhoenix]

Unbelievable. She is absolutely amazing.

[Pestinha92]

@DragonerPhoenix

She? o.O

[DragonerPhoenix]

@Pestinha92 Yes, she's female. Don't judge her.

[Pestinha92]

@DragonerPhoenix

I dind't judged her... Those who judge people by appearance are assholes. I don't care how she looks like, I just like her music.

[DragonerPhoenix]

@Pestinha92 Okay :D

[countflaming]

she is amazing and dont you think it is kind of ironic that she is playing in front of BETHESDA studios because they made oblivion and the soundtrack to that game has some songs played by the hammered dulcimer. I am just saying

[frostyglaze]

@countflaming "playing in front of BETHESDA studios" WRONG - Bethesda studios is located in Bethesda, Maryland. This video is in Bethesda Fountain, in central park in New York.

[dodgydogman]

Lol, why? You gonna put it on your ipod? :P

[mrfundrummer]

lol get destroyed ^

[MavericKahwiJones]

Hahah I love how we are all saying He/Him when the info says: "I found out the woman's name is Arlen Oleson" haha

She does look a little like both though

No doubt she's too awesome to be one or the other!

[korgri]

Arlen is a guy.

[Memorandumi]

He's very skilled at the Dulcimer.

[Xways0]
