the tune is called "Maiden's Prayer", it's by Bob Wills originally (I think?) You'll find a very nice version under martingross here in youtube, he is the top German dobro player at the time.
Recently got myself a dobro, doing some internet research and found this video. Very well done! Hope I can find some musicians to jam with like this someday. :)
@calinkus The gentleman above should know well. He was for many years Brother Oswald's student, and on occasions played with Roy Acuff. I love Maiden's Prayer.
This is an old Bob Wills fiddle tune "The maidens prayer. This player obviously learned a lot of his style from Bashful Brother Oswald and Hoss Lineman
A maiden's prayer composed by a young polish pianist Tekla Badarzewska (1856!)
