Jean's song for the winter solistice with a setting in her Kentucky Mountain home. Cornshuck dolls made by the Ritchie sisters, carved animals from her cabin, and real snow from Heaven. Video montage by George Pickow.
Say, I think you can hear my group HESPERUS in the background on this cut--Scott Reiss on hammered dulcimer, Mark Cudek on cittern, and me on viola da gamba. Forgot we did this about 25 years ago with Jean. Tina Chancey
This is beautiful to see and hear...Jean is in the hospital at this time...and i would hope that we all can send the best wishes for her recovery and continued music. She is an international treasure
just beautiful

That voice! That voice! And that's how you play a dulcimer! Man Oh man am I a hack! I better dig out my Jean Ritchie dulcimer book...

I hope Jean is encouraged these days
by the love and gratitude of so many around the world.
Be well, sister and teacher.
