    Re: Samurai Blues

    I always enjoy listening to this one, and I've listened to it a lot since buying your Perinmama album. It seems to have a calm but energising, almost healing, effect on me. I love all the voices and...

    Re: Sí Beag, Sí Mhór

    What Cheryl said. It takes a lot of courage and talent to sound so good on solo mandolin.

    Re: The Emigrant's Adieu

    Thank you, Richard. I watched the film for the first time today and feel in awe of the scholarship, music, narration and technical work that have gone into this. It's really something special, and I...

    Re: The mandolin: Instrument of the year, 2023

    Yes, the mandolin was considered a workers' instrument. Perhaps they were cheaper than other instruments. Mandolin orchestras in Germany emerged from workers' associations and the Wandervogel...

    It's not often I get to see such a talented child! My son would struggle to avoid breaking the mandolin, let alone play it so well. When did Leo start learning?

    A special occasion - the last musical outing with the old work colleagues, friends, after-work strummers and occasional open-mic band before new jobs and long-distance house moves cause the natural...

    That's a nice lesson, thanks! I struggle to bring more variety into my chord playing, so this was a useful summary.

    Re: Orion’s Belt

    These are great pieces, and the production sounds very professional. I really enjoyed listening. Part 2 gave me a sense of peace - I love it when acoustic meets ambient.
