Dear mandolin friends around the world,
I am delighted to share with you a most wonderful performance of my Samovar, a concert-piece written in the turn-of-the-century a la Russe style, by Het Consort in the Netherlands, one of the very finest plucked ensembles anywhere in the world. The soloist is Ferdinand Binnendijk, a brilliant mandolinist, in this case showcasing his dazzling skills on the rather awe-inspiring liuto cantabile, a five-course plucked instrument with an enormous range and rare expressive capabilities.

I hope you enjoy listening to this beautiful performance as much as I have. The score and parts are yours for the asking, via the Café messenger.
Happy May 1st!
Victor
