Por Una Cabeza - ETSU Mandolin Orchestra - Remote recording

[blidgood]

Hi, folks - just wanted to share this recording that my students and I put together at the end of the past Spring semester - it's finally ready to go. There will be at least one more soon- and I will be opening up an invitation to folks who want to join in on a larger "Remote Mandolin Orchestra" this Fall - stay tuned!





This is a quartet version of the tango "Por una Cabeza" (Carlos Gardel - composer; Alfredo Le Pera - lyricist) by members of the East Tennessee State University Mandolin Orchestra (led by Dr. Lee Bidgood - lower left). Lonny Finley is on the upper left , playing mandocello, Clinton Ross is on mandola (lower right) and mandolinist Conor Powers-Stout is on the upper right. This course is part of ETSU's program in Bluegrass, Old Time, and Country Music - https://www.etsu.edu/cas/das/bluegrass/
In addition to studying the musics that have grown up in and through our homeplace in central Appalachia, we explore string band musics from around the world, looking for connections and contrasts.
