Mandolin Mondays #1 - Huckleberry Hornpipe

Rating: 2 votes, 5.00 average.
This year I'm taking on a new mandolin challenge! Every monday I'll be posting a new homemade mandolin music video of original arrangements of familiar tunes from all genres. And what better way to start a new mandolin tradition than with an old fiddle tune played too fast, with too many notes, and with questionably appropriate interpretations of traditional music styles. Here's a couple passes of an old favorite: Byron Berline's "Huckleberry Hornpipe."



You can now get a tab/notation transcription for this video, and all of my other personal solo Mandolin Mondays arrangements on my Patreon site here: https://www.patreon.com/davidbenedictmandolin

Also, feel free to join the fun and post your own Mandolin Monday videos or comment your tune suggestions for future videos below.

All the best,
David

    I always admire those who have the ability to play too fast! How do you do it? Thank you for sharing this video, in any case.

    Thanks so much! I think the key to playing fast is drinking a lot of coffee

    I had thought one or your more recent examples was my favorite, but after browsing through the videos all the way back to week #1, this is my winner. Awesome, clean playing.
