Mandolin Essex
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 14 ก.พ. 2009
A combination of traditional tunes and my own musings. Instruments include Mandolin, Octave Mandolin, Bouzouki, Irish Tenor Banjo, Tenor Guitar and Bodhran. I record and mix on a Tascam dp-24 studio. All done for fun.

happy new year 2025!
Happy New Year too you. 🎉
hope it's not a farewell!!!! I do 'ld like to hear you once again on 2025! 😁 Happy new year and all the best wishes from France!
It's a farewell to 2024 and welcoming 2025. Plenty of tunes to come in the New Year. Brigitte, do you have a particular favorite French folk tune. Let me know. Happy New Year to you and thank you for all your kind words this year. 🙏
@@davidmcgowan103 by the way, if you know a famous French folk band from the 70's and 80's whose name was "Malicorne", any song from them, all the songs are for me great... but I dont know if they can be palyed on mandolin.... Once again, happy new year! 🍀🍾🍷🍺🌈🌠🌟⭐
Sounds like it is tuned very low. Why?
@@michaelmcdonald3057 that would be the Octave Mandolin you are hearing. Mixed standard and octave in the recording.
@@davidmcgowan103 In my humble opinion, that was not a good idea! Sorry, just didn't sound right.
@@michaelmcdonald3057sorry I wasted your time.
@@davidmcgowan103 Jeez, if you can't take a bit of constructive criticism, don't post stuff on line!
To say you didn't like it is not constructive criticism, just your opinion. If I thought you had a point I would consider it, but you dont😂😂.@@michaelmcdonald3057
great Christmas carol... and pleasant arrangement... I haven't recorded it yet, so here's an idea for me for next year.. Merry Christmas, David!
Well played Dave, my favourite time signature…😂😂😂…Happy Christmas to you, and yours..🌲🎅❄️
@@rolypa Happy Christmas Roly. This one is for you I know hiw much you love a 9/8.... 🥳 🎄 🎶
I liked the slow attack on the mandolin. Very nice introspective quality to the sound.
@@streetlegal008 thank you, part of this challenge is to learn the recording process. 🙏
I haven't been counting, but it looks like you are on the home straight, David. This is a great tune, beautifully played. I really appreciate hearing something different from the tired and familiar selection of modern carols.
@@richardcarver6849 nearly there Richard. When I play it I picture Mr Feeziwig and his wife dancing. Great tune
That's a mandola.
Thanks for sharing!
@@JackFright our pleasure 🙏
You may want to reupload as it is extremely quiet
This is an absolute beautiful rendition. Really glad I stumbled upon it. Cheers chaps! ❤
@@andrewtully3622 that's kind of you. Thanks for dropping by.
a beautiful version... pleasant contribution to creating the Christmas spirit... well done... have a happy Christmas season!
@@ToomasRannu Merry Christmas Toomas. Loving your winter season tunes. 🎄
Nicely done chaps!
@@sppmc3284 thank you. A couple more to go, then back to lonely me. 🎅
So beautiful! Just subbed to your channel, happy to find it!
@@cuisinedemichelle thank you, so glad you liked it. I've really enjoyed playing these festive tunes. Merry Christmas 🎅
Great
I wish I'd done it longer now 🤔
Nicely done
Thank you Sir Jeremy
This is one of my favourite songs. A long time ago I used to play it on the harp. It sounds so beautiful on the mandolin, really lovely work here!
Thank you for listening and you're kind words. I was watching your channel earlier, beautiful pieces. 🎶
This is THE Christmas piece for all nostalgia for country Christmas circa 1992.
@@saturnine156 it's a fun tune to play. I Always picture people dancing to it. 🕺💃
@@davidmcgowan103 oh yes, people 'll surely dance ... (after some pints of ale, but on Xmas, it's not a sin!)
Very jolly!
This sound is magic... So many memories are coming up!!! Many thanks to you....😁
I'm glad you like it Brigitte
Cheers Dave. My favourite and beautifully done. 🎄
@@sppmc3284 a must for an advent count down ✨️
David, the best English carol, in my view, beautifully done.
@@richardcarver6849 I think so Richard. So many beautiful versions out there.
Quite different from what you use to play, but I did enjoy it! Merry Xmas to you and people you love....
Merry Christmas @@brigittethierens928 🎅
Xmas banger!
@@sppmc3284 with a bit of tambourine thrown in 😃
Another Christmas cracker!
Lovely that.
@@sppmc3284 any requests
Away in a manger would be good.
@sppmc3284 you're wish is my command.
Excellent orchestration and interpretation. Unique creative style. So beautiful, sweet and smooth. Incredible mandolin player with a lot of feeling. Much inspired and talented musical production. A real peaceful and relaxing pleasure to listen. Full of poetry and tenderness.Good for the mind and the ears. Big big big like for this fantastic perform and brighting sharing. Splendid and luminous.
@@OlivierBillaut that's very kind of you. I recorded this recently when my garden was full of butterfly's 🦋 They seemed to enjoy it 🙃
Hello ! It is really interesting composition and musical instrument , Big LIKE 10 !
@@ПоющаяГитара thank you for watching
Genial
this kind of sound and image allows you to imagine a bleak wind and a blizzard of snow outside the door... easily counts as a winter song... have a happy day!
Tutorial please :)

Hope this helps 🙏
come here, dudes, and have a dance (and several pints of ale, of course)!
Great stuff, David. A real foot tapper.
@@richardcarver6849 thank you Richard. Love your music 🎶
Just got a mandolin. Started to look for videos of players. Find you playing one of my favorite themes is a blessing. :D
That's very kind of you. Enjoy your Mandolin journey 🙏
beautiful tune and nice mix... sounds pleasant... nice playing and video editing... well done
What video editing. They were BIG Butterfly's 😅
@@davidmcgowan103 oh me! I thought it's some kind of a smaller type of mandolin :)
@@ToomasRannu 🤣
always the same huge pleasure when I listen to you playing some music...
Thank you Brigitte 🙏
beautiful piece... pleasant calming down atmosphere... perfect match of sound and image... well done
Thank you Toomas. 🙏
😊
🙏
Where can I find the notation for this tune? I love it for its speed and tone!
It's in the key of Dm if that helps.
it's always great to escape with such songs.... I dont travel any more, but with this music, I' still do...
@@brigittethierens928 just a short trip to the Emerald Isle. Never been but hope to. 🇮🇪
memories from my youth (which is very very far.....😁) many thanks for that!
@@brigittethierens928 my pleasure Brigitte 🙏
A man, a shed and a mandolin. Happiness!
And a cup of tea 🍵
Nice, playing mandolin in your garden chair, props to you mate
Thank you kindly!
Fantastic!!
Thank you for watching 👀 🙏
I just got myself a mandolin today. Nothing fancy, used one, but I am excited to practice more with it. I'll work to be like you one day
If you need any help just ask. Find out how to play G,C,D chords and you are off. 🎶
the same happiness as always, when I listen to you....
Thank you ❤
Gorgeous rendition, thank you
Hi there! enjoy your holidays and thank you for this moment of going back in time! Good old times! have you been playing guitar (or any other stringed instrument) for a long time?
Hi Brigitte, it's not far from home, but enough to have a relaxing break, on the Blackwater Estuary. I'm a bit if a jack of all trades, and master of none. 😃 Started as most people do with guitar but wanted to play melody more. Found the Mandolin family and just loved them. How about you. Do you play?
@@davidmcgowan103 I played piano for a long time (not very well, but I did!) Unfortunately I had to sell it because I moved from a large house to a small flat, and in a flat it should have been a noisy hobby for the neighbours... it was a Pleyel built in 1932 (a second hand piano, of course, my parents bought it when I was 10) I had some holidays in Southend ten years ago, and so I visited (fast, of course) the natural reserve of the Blackwater estuary. I'm now an old lady living with an old dashund, but i hope come back in UK and spend some time in Peterborough area and of course Scotland.... I miss pubs! 🤣
Nice triplets! Good sound.
Fine playing on the octave!
