Some Christmas carols are very famous and some not so much. Some are relatively unknown. Seems that this is one of them. Still, it is beautiful and a pleasure to play.
This is a Christmas carol “Der...
With reference to a conversation with Jim Imhoff a while ago about how to classify music, I'm really unsure if this is Baroque or traditional, so I am taking the liberty of posting to both boards.

Lovely tunes, thanks so much for sharing!
A fine set of jigs, Ondrej. A lot of sustain from that instrument.
I thought I'd branch out and try my hand at some Renaissance music. This is Bianco Fiore, a tune attributed to Cesare Negri. Thanks in advance for listening and any feedback you may like to offer!

I am doing an event at the Oxford Human Rights Festival next month, using Irish and Scottish traditional music to tell the story of migration, mainly to North America. It will be shown in Oxford on...

Telemann uses various intonations of folk music in his works, every time play them, It’s interesting to think about where they come from.
Here is my version of Allegro from Fantasia in D (TWV...
Hello Mr. ondrej
I listened to your wonderful old Japanese songs and remembered the Japanese culture that I had forgotten. Japanese folk songs have a clause that means melody. The scale has become...
Pretty neat stuff!
Bill Frisell (with Ron Carter) does a great reharmonized version of You Are My Sunshine.
This is perfect. Next time I forget to switch harmonicas between songs I’ll tell the band I’m experimenting with bitonality. :)
That was interesting, and a good choice of familiar tunes to...

Sorry you had to have patience for me to respond - I don't attend this forum on a regular basis.
To answer your two...
This is my arrangement of a Finnish folksong “Kukkuva kello” (Cuckoo clock). A rough English translation of the first verse of the song would be something like this:
“Buy me, you son, that cuckoo...
Thanks for the compliments! I do spend a lot of time on my research and writing it all up.
I sometimes worry some readers might find things too long and detailed. But breaking things up in small...
Hi all,
I've published a rather large blog post concerning a dark horse of mandolin history: the mandolin in Portugal (ca. 1770-1830).
Besides listing some sources already discovered by...
Following the Oud, the Mediaeval Lute is played with a long pick called a Risha. The drone notes need to be on adjacent strings and, I assume, Tonics, Fourths and Fifths of the key you are in. Jo...
Oops. I'm wrong. I'd forgotten that Alon Sariel uses a Tuscan mandolin as a reasonable facsimile of Brescian mandolin and is good enough to even name it correctly! (Although I am skeptical of his...
Hi all,
I've posted a new blog article about my latest find. I discovered two manuscripts with music for mandolin and orchestra (violin 1, 2, viola, basso, flutes 1&2, horns 1&2) from Ernest...
Another fine set which suits the tenor guitar, Ondrej.
Nice melody! Thank you
