All things musical

Sure, why not! Besides, I think we have a mandola (tenor mandolin) around here somewhere? Have you ever heard of the Minnesota Mandolin Orchestra? They play all kinds of stuff, from traditional to classical orchestra music, all on mandolins (of all sizes)! Here is a link to their web page: Minnesota Mandolin Orchestra

Besides, whatever can be played on a violin, can usually be played on a mandolin. If a violinist wants to play a cello part, they just have to transpose it up an octave or so, right?

OK, here's a part I wrote for When the saints go marching in. It's a good example of pmw input and output. If you're familiar with musical notation, you can soon see how the coding works.

The choir I play with is a church gospel choir, but we do quite a wide range of music: gospel, spirituals, world music, modern charismatic stuff, a few liturgical settings, and occasionally something I wrote myself.

In this piece I do enormous slides from C down to G to make my cello sound like a trombone. Try doing that on a mandola!

Hazel, I'll try, but don't promise success! Thanks, and I'll try it in a little while today!
