Description: Max ZT is an innovator in this tool. Hailed as “the Jimi Hendrix of the hammered dulcimer” by NPR and a “force of nature” by NY Music Daily, Max ZT, the founder of classic Irish folk music, has carried over his compositional techniques. both to Senegal, where he studied the Mandinka technique with the Sissoko Griot family, and to Mumbai, India, where he received a grant to study with the great master Santor Pandit Shivkumar Sharma. His fresh perspective and bold experimentalism became the basis of beautifully complex and original compositions, while his unorthodox playing style was a pioneering force in revolutionary dulcimer techniques.
Max ZT has revitalized the conceptual framework of traditional folk music, fusing multicultural roots and traditions to create a truly compelling sound. The Dulcimer hammer has appeared in Western modern music. For example, Max contributed to the writing of the songs Of Montreal, Say Anything and Goo Goo Dolls. He has performed on stage with Ravi Shankar, Jon Bon Jovi, Bela Fleck, Tinariwen, Jimmy Cliff and others. Other bands known to use this instrument include Soulful, John Lennon, Aerosmith, Joni Mitchell and many more. However, as a beautiful and ancient predecessor to the piano, there is a ton of room and opportunity for its stunning, genre-crossing sounds. What will you create with these sounds?
