Epirote music on mandolin, in standard and modal tuning
This music is usually played on laouto (lute), clarinet and violin. At times an accordion accompanies it.

I would call this an open or a modal tuning, but I suppose in Western music this is called a cross tuning. I really wanted to give AEAE a try, but this is an old instrument with no truss rod that just got repaired, so I played it safe by tuning down. Didn't like it at all with a Shubb mando capo on the second fret, so I just played it in G.
