performer at Faneuil Hall in Boston, Beverly lives in Ossipee, NH, and
provides music for film and multimedia presentations, festivals and
events of all kinds, New England contradancing, and International folk
dance. She has released a number of recordings.
Beverly plays hammered dulcimer; piano, organ, and other keyboards; 6- and 7-string guitars; voice; pennywhistle; frame drums; fretted dulcimer; folk harp;, concertina; nyckelharpa; and Hurdy-gurdy. She is currently writing books for music publisher Mel Bay, and is featured in "Hammered Dulcimer 2000. The world's finest hammered dulcimer solos."
On top of all that, Beverly has become a devoted Mac user.
