    Finally, for all the friends of the mandolin, here's my video of my arrangement for solo mandolin of a famous Christmas carol. I hope you like it, greetings from Sicily!

    Now you have my attention. Great job! I like your arrangement of the music as well as your techique.
    Keep the mandolin stuff coming!

    And an upcoming Merry Christmas to you!

    Beautiful rendition of "Silent Night". Wish I could play like that! Did you take lessons or teach yourself?

    Player and instrument have found each other at last. That's what I call a happy ending (for this year) and a promise (for years to come).
    Buon Natale! Merry Christmas! Frohe Weihnacht!

    Happy Christmas also to you dear Friends! Thanks a lot for your compliments! Bertram, I hope in the near future to make more videos with the mandolin ... but it is not easy, the mandolin is a beautiful instrument, but also very difficult to play well! Greetings from Sicily!
