One of Britain's foremost dulcimer players, Sue Harris originally played oboe. She took up hammered dulcimer in 1975 when puffing became too much due to pregnancy with her first son. She was in one of the early line-ups of Ashley Hutching's Albion Country Band, and has played with Richard and Linda Thompson as well as John Kirkpatrick. Sue has also composed music for many BBC radio plays and for theatre productions. She is currently working with community orchestras, and as a natural voice practitioner is leading and writing music for small choirs. While based in England she choses music from a rich variety of traditions.
