    Thanks, Scott. News: I have posted new recordings of some pieces, with more to come. The permanent recordings are well on their way now, and should be finished within the next few weeks. I'll post links here when available.

    My apologies to all who have been waiting for the recordings. Unfortunately the book was released just as pandemic lockdowns arrived, and as a result the professional video recordings I made could not be edited and released (logistical reasons). Since it's all original music, the recordings are helpful (although you might prefer to learn only from the notation, without being influenced by the recordings). It's a book of concert solos using classical right-hand techniques (but not in a "classical" style). It also functions as a book of etudes, with practice materials to help gradually build right-hand techniques that can be applied to any style of mandolin playing.

    Everyone hang in there -- we'll get through this!
