Mandolin music was the background music to my childhood .. my father played and the house was always filled with the sounds of him playing .. I’m so happy that Avi is spreading the beauty :-))
avi is awesome, but the art director of this program not that much. i passed through the silly serenade. i actually quite liked the bit on mandolin related instruments. losing my religion was just too much.
There are lots of excellent mandolin performers in the world. What is so special about this one except for his hippie-negligent outlook which Deutsche Grammophon hopes to sell to a certain category of audience?
How painful it must have been for an Israeli to travel around Berlin. To walk on the very streets where in the not so distant past his people were being beaten and murdered by Berliners and other Germans. I never knew that Avi actually lives in Berlin. Amazing.
