Ah yes! Now I know who can play as mature Dandelion in Netflix! I can already see scene where Dandelion finishes his magnum opus "Half a century of poetry"
No way, what a fun piece of music to see you pick up! Thanks for playing that one Dan, that was great as usual, and I feel you added a little extra in the mix!
Oh my gosh yes!!!! I love the witcher, and video game covers as a whole, and I LOVE covers like yours that use fitting instruments :) thank you so much!!!
Good Afternoon Daniel, Bright and sunny here in Gravesend Kent but that music is definitely Dark! I know nothing about video games so I have no starting point with this tune but I am guessing that the composer is probably Polish given his name. The poor old Poles have been through a bit in the last few centuries and I always think that historically speaking what happens in the National Psyche often comes out in the music of the Land. Poland as a Nation has shifted about 300Kms east and then 300Km West and now sits somewhere in the middle of its historical boundaries so there is something of the Teutonic Knights about this piece. Nice to see you sporting a button down Collar. You look Ok after your Shots so no ill effects I am pleased to see! It is probably easier to roll your sleeve up in a conventional shirt. Did you get a chance to Listen to any Judee Sill? I would be interested to hear what you think. Do any other followers like Judee too I wonder? Thanks for Posting, I will have to listen to this one again and reference the video game but I probably won't play the game just the music. Keep Safe and Keep Playing Clive
Thanks Clive, Dark, yes very dark. I'm not a player either, although from what I read these games are fascinating (and addicting)- wish I had the time. Yes, the Polish developers have the corner on the market for these games. The Slavonic mythology is allowed to run rampant and they do a fine job of it. We're feeling fine after the 1st vax and hoping the second won't flatten us out like a steamroller. I like the Judee Sill a lot but I'm not sure I could do justice to the music. if you look up the Lullaby video be forewarned - I'm kind of surprised I haven't had nightmares from working with that 2 1/2 minute video
Wonderful!! Simply resplendent! As someone who'd love to get into playing the lute, do you have a recommendation for what kind of lute to start with? Such a beautiful instrument!
Thanks! most people start on the renaissance lute because the tuning is similar to guitar. The baroque lute I used for this video has a whole different tuning scheme.
Wonderful as always! How were you inspired to tackle these tunes from the Witcher? Did you the game yourself, were you recommended to look into them, or some other way?
@@danbluedeer ah yes, that is indeed a good way to find nice music. I am glad that you are so passionate, your videos always make for a nice few minutes of relaxation :)
Hauntingly beautiful tune Dan. I like the background music you used as well. Odd question for you. How many “courses” is your lute, and for a beginner lute player, is there an optimum amount of courses? (Sorry, that’s two questions)
this is a baroque lute with 11 courses. The tuning is quite different from a renaissance lute which can have from 6 to 10 courses. My renaissance lute is an 8-course and I think that is the ideal for me
Just out of curiosity, how much did that lute cost you? It has such a complex sound with overtones and harmonics everywhere. And the bass strings are perfectly clear with a punchy tone while remaining heavy and sustaining for days. Really exquisite instrument, if it was a piano it'd be a Bosendorfer for sure.
I wish I had the time...too busy playing music! I hardly ever play my Roland XP 30 keyboard these days, but that is what I used for the low and high drones from the string section
@@danbluedeer I absolutely love Percival and the Witcher games music/songs. This is one of the ones I like least though, but it's still a good one. Just remember: Percival is the band that is guilty of the Witcher 3 music... ;)
Whoa! I played Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. You played this beautifully! Thank you! Thank you!

Yes, finally some Witcher stuff! Sounding great!
Justin Glad you like it!
video game music that was created by classically trained musicians is amazing. pokemon music (sinnoh specifically) has amazing baroque influences
thanks for listening! I'll see if I can find sinnoh.
Excellent as always!
in my opinion, sound tracks from video games are a very large amount of interesting melodic material
yes, some of them are real earworms...
Good job!Thank you
Jack --- Welcome!
Beautiful! Very atmospheric and a bit ominous!
yes, it's an eerie one .....Glad you like it!
I always enjoy your videos. Good job, as usual!
Thanks Carl - Glad you like them!
Great as always. Peace and love from Oregon.

Amazing :O
Thanks Sergiusz!
We still need a Geldern Night (Gothic 3 OST) cover from you :3
maybe....
@@danbluedeer no worries, I won't stop asking for it :)
Incredible!
I will write more words to help with the promotion of the channel
Nikita - I appreciate your effort!
Is there a place to get the sheet music I really want to learn the lute and songs I really enjoy like this one and the wolven storm.
there are free tablature score at ultimate guitar.com unfortunately they don't show the rhythm but you can listen to the song figure that out
So epiC
Thanks!
More Witcher music please!!
I'll keep searching.... thanks!
Dan!
Whoa. What is happening here? Wonderful post.
Sounds like there might be a CD in your future.
Can I pre-order?
Thanks Michael ....er, I think my CD days are over
:D Glad to see a fan of the Witcher's soundtrack. Well played, Dan! Have you actually played Witcher 3?
thanks Genghis - no I haven't played the game
Wonderful as always!
How were you inspired to tackle these tunes from the Witcher? Did you the game yourself, were you recommended to look into them, or some other way?
Thanks! I don't have time for the games- too busy playing music yes, recommended by some listeners who thought the songs might work

Thanks for the comment... I guess all totaled it's about 6K
I’d like to see you play The Last Of Us main theme on lute. That’d be so cool!
I'll take a look...
Whoa, do you play video games?! What's the background wind sound? I can't even identify the instrument.
I wish I had the time...too busy playing music! I hardly ever play my Roland XP 30 keyboard these days, but that is what I used for the low and high drones from the string section
@@danbluedeer I should have known it was from a keyboard and that the sound IS a drone. We benefit from your single-minded busyness so thank you!
:-)
glad you like!
@@danbluedeer I absolutely love Percival and the Witcher games music/songs. This is one of the ones I like least though, but it's still a good one.

Toss a coin to your witcher!
already done!
