The nine powerful lessons on this DVD, compiled from Homespun's library of lessons, represent mandolin instruction at its very best. Each segment, taught by a master of the instrument, has been chosen to give learning players new techniques, tunes and musical insights. Styles taught include bluegrass, old-time, Celtic, blues and contemporary "new acoustic." The lessons start at a beginner level and progressively get more challenging. Note/tab included as a PDF file on the disc. Beginning/intermediate. 100 min.
