The mandolin, with its distinctive sound and unique design, has captivated musicians and listeners for centuries. Originating from the lute family in Italy during the 17th and 18th centuries, it quickly became a staple in classical, folk, bluegrass, and rock music. Its bright, resonant tones, produced by double strings, make it a standout in any ensemble.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYa9qdtxevg&t=7s Nigel Woodhouse does a great job introducing the mandolin in this film. It's fascinating how composers have used it to add a unique, folk-inspired color to orchestral music over the centuries.

The Scandinavian polska sounds fantastic on the Phoenix Neo Bluegrass mandolin. It’s great to see such a rich piece of Nordic folk tradition brought to life. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuUt87yewDc |
