I truly appreciate you sharing this! Well done all.
Okay, I started searching on Amazon.de and Amazon.uk but to no avail. I ended up looking on UK ebay and I found a copy of volume 1 and 2! I purchased for ~$50 US. I hope they come soon so I can use...
Before I buy, I wanted to check to see if anyone has a copy of Volumes 1 and 2 of this method? If anyone wants to send me a physical copy, I will happily scan it with a high-quality scanner and place...
@Bluey You can do an ABC import to MuseScore with a third party plugin and then easily convert to tab by copy pasting on a new mandolin tab staff. Please let me know if you’d like a more granular...
@mikeBuesseler Ha! I can do that. I feel foolish, great comment! You will be attributed!
Thanks @JEStanek! I knew people like you are out there. If enough of y’all poke your heads up I’ll make a dedicated combo version. I just like an entire tune to fit on one page during a session ya...
@DavidKOS Thanks! I always love hearing from you on my projects and perhaps one day I can return the favor :) I too am primarily a sheet music enjoyer, but many of my session mates are tab hounds,...
Hey All,
My music teacher and I developed an Irish trad tunebook that we're putting out here for all to use. I know there’s already a few out there, but this one’s ours! It contains tabs and...
For me, Julien Martineau is in a class of his own. Detlef is also an excellent choice though!

@wsugai I use a MuseScore, and there’s a free plugin that imports ABC to standard notation. I then convert the dots to tabs. The whole process takes around 10 mouse clicks. I can write it up if it’s...
I just want to say, I love your channel Frank.
@JeffD you're absolutely right that tabs are a little more granular than dots. Even then, if the tab says to play the 5th fret on the D string, the player has to make a choice as to which finger to...
@Louise You’re definitely correct, the font gets small. But it’s doable! Take a look at the example I posted at the very beginning. The first movement of suite 1 is a good example of how compact it...
Well David, I learned a LOT from your post and related citations. Thank you!! If you have a copy of that Strad article handy I'd love to take a gander.
After a little searching, I believe the...
@DavidKOS thank you for being such a badass. You're responses are always helpful.
It's great to hear others dislike page turns, although other folks please provide your opinions.
I've got...
Hello Amazing Mandolin Cafe Peeps,
I'm putting together an open source / free version of the Bach Cello Suites transposed for mandolin. The final output will be in PDF and MuseScore formats. There...
Fantastic. I’m a recording newbie. Does the pop screen help with removing the sound of the pick “clicking”?
Just lovely!
Hello All!
I really appreciate all the information. I'll respond to everyone below:
* Joe Bartl: I have come across the website and pulled down a lot of the scores before but I wasn't sure if...
Hello All,
Does a complete book exist that encompasses all of Calace's works? I can't even seem to find a trustworthy listing of all of Calace's tunes. I've seen a few books here and there that...
I am happy to declare that as of last year, I am the owner of this beaut. :)
I truly enjoyed this! Fantastic. I appreciate you sharing. This is my first exposure to the tune; how did you find it originally? Also, what kind of mandolin and pick are you using? (Just listened to...
Looks handsome! I’d love to hear it. I recommend the Bach Cello suites to scratch that classical itch. Mel Bay has a nice octave mandolin book that I really liked....
I’ll definitely listen when it arrives! While I love Celtic jigs, I for some reason feel that Bach’s gigues are quite difficult to play but are of lower quality than the rest of the movements. But...
