"An absolute delight! Linda's hammered dulcimer and Dan's guitar blend together seamlessly on a great selection of contemporary and traditional tunes. Linda is a tasteful dulcimer player and Dan is an excellent guitar player. The combined sound is so very smooth that one tends to forget just how difficult some of these tunes are to play on any instrument."

Dulcimer Player News on A Turning Point
"The music offered here reveals Mr. DeLancey to be a talented and imaginative guitarist with a tone and style reminiscent to my ear of the playing of Dan Crary. Like Mr. Crary, Mr. DeLancey has that cleanly elegant, almost classical approach, full of warm, ringing notes and complex patterns that give his solos a solid, structured feel regardless of the tempo."
