[2] Dulin has cited Philip Aaberg, David Lanz, Keiko Matsui and Clara Ponty as some of the artists whose work he has admired.
In an early interview Dulin has stated that in his formative years as an instrumentalist, he would play the piano by ear and learned to sight read at a much later date.
He has also credited his accomplishments to his parents who had made a lot of sacrifices to help him follow his dreams, including a gift of a Steinway grand piano on his 15th birthday.
Dulin has stated that the music was not intended to be representative of Native American culture, but the wooden flutes were the perfect medium to express the beauty of the untouched world.
In an interview, Dulin had expressed his views that classical music was dying, and needs to be brought back to the attention of the general public.
[27] In 2008, Dulin released his fourth album of original material, and his third as a solo recording artist, on Follow The River.
The main melody on the title track that opens the album also came to Dulin when he was sitting on a rock looking down at the river.
[11] It has been noted that while there are elements of classical music, the album exhibits a much wider range of influences including contemporary instrumental, new age, smooth jazz, and a bit of folk/roots Americana.
On this album, Dulin has moved away from the New Age genre, back to his Classical music roots with interpretations of works by Bach, Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Chopin, and Saint- Saens.
His music has also been heard in an episode of the final season of NBC's hit sitcom Parks and Recreation.
