Wild Mountain Thyme (arr. Scott Tennant) - Alexandra Whittingham 

How could one live without this lovely music

Beautiful, suspenseful phrasing. Occasionally, she is behind the beat just the perfect fraction of an instant. Building interest as the note rides to the rescue right before the soul notices its absence.

A Lively scottish tune. Goes so well with Alexandras charmlng english accent, her såning fon instead of fun, so Nice.

Oh the summertime is coming And the trees are sweetly blooming And the wild mountain thyme Grows around the blooming heather. Will ye go lassie go.

... Like a painting taken out of time: the beauty of a princess, beautiful music, an excellent choice ... magnificent! ...

I can’t help but love the melodies of Scottish folklore. There’s something about them that just caresses one’s ears and heart. And so does your playing. You give a soul to any piece you play.

Dear Alexandra, this song was a delight for the soul. We need much more of this. The scene outside fitted perfectly. Thanks a lot.

Hiya Alexandra, a really lovely interpretation of a classic. Thanks very much and stay well. David 😎🎶🎸🇬🇧

I’ve never liked playing acoustic guitars but I love the sound of them being played professionally.

Bravo👏👏👏Wonderfully played...Thank you Alexandra!

At times like this, only one thing to say... thank you Alexandra

Brought tears to my eyes, real playing. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this beautiful gift. I'm Scottish and have heard this tune so often throughout my long life but never so delicately expressed. I genuinely shed a tear.

This rendition of this classic is the best I have ever heard... Alexandra your playing is divine...

Very good. I love classical guitar❤️

I bought the Guitar, had the lessons and dedicated the time but unfortunately I just don't have what it takes........So listening to you is a real pleasure that I greatly appreciate. Stay safe everyone.

This is so beautiful it reaches into my very soul, thank you!

I want to learn to play like this for love. Music is a beautiful way to express feelings that do not have words. You are an inspiration. Cheers and play on!

Alexandra is such an amazing guitarist and person. I find this piece so moving. So many videos on RU-vid on guitar playing, but Alexandra is one of the few I’ve see who demonstrates the beauty of. the nylon-string classical guitar.

Nice tune, great instrument and wonderful player - thank you for sharing this beautiful arrangment.

Goosebumps .... it slips under my skin and makes me thinking of wonderful times in the past with my parents.... ⭐

Nice & touchy! Super!

I've listened to a few of your pieces now, after discovering you only yesterday. You blow me away with the feeling you generate, you can tell when a performer understands and okays from their heart. I listen a lot to Estes Tonne, who I've followed when he was a busker. You have the same gift of light within music. 😎☯️🌹

Purity, talent, delicacy define you. Each sequence of notes is a word from your heart. Thanks!

Beautiful, how soothing ♥️

Soothing arrangement of the Scottish/Irish folk song. We need tranquility especially now with the virus. Thank you Alexandra!

Love the old song. Beautifully played. Lass, ya warmed the cockles of me heart.

The summers of life, fleeting away to yesteryears, nonetheless, their ballads are forever written in the souls. *** Two hearts a lifetime apart, nevertheless, playing a duet harmoniously.

Waves of calm and hope in this catastrophic moment in which we live. Gratitude Alexandra. Hugs from Brazil.

So good! Thank you!

Few artists put a smile on my face every time I listen to them. Thank you and may God give many years to develop and share your amazing talent.

Graceful and angelic.. you and your playing. Thank you

Lovely, Alexandra, thank you for raising our spirits, and reminding us of good times!

Thanks Alexandra, a favourite of mine, beautifully played, and this arrangement was one of the first tunes I learned for the classical guitar. Thanks again. ;)

Alexandra, your guitar sings this song as beautifully as the voice of an angel. You have been added to my list of cultural treasures.

Quantas vezes já falei que amo essa menina.

I traveled outside my house during the my insolation, to place i cant describe

I am just learning to play this myself and the one thing I notice is that you bring out the melody very nicely... I will need to work on that ...

Once more...so precious! Thanks

What a gorgeous sense of connection to this beautiful piece.

Dulce sonido!.Saludos desde Argentina ❤

Beautiful tune, beautifully played! Thanks Alexandra! 💕😀🍀👍

Love that beautiful song. What a treat. Thanks for sharing.

What a shocker that she would be able to negotiate her way through this simple, lovely tune. (And you won't hear it played any better.) But here's the irony: tunes like this will resonate at least ten times more with the overall masses than will some of the more obscure minefield extremely difficult classical pieces she plays. Those pieces are fun to watch - granted - and I always wonder how on earth she has it in her to do it. You have to see it to believe it...and I still don't. The finger stretches, the accuracy, the technique, the speed...the whole nine yards - it's something to watch. But those pieces generally lack soul...heart... But do they make up for it with impossible pyrotechnics? For me, the answer is no. But again, it's a trip watching a mortal do the immortal. But _make me cry_ the way Macyn Taylor does with "The Fisherman."

Thanks - it helps us keep calm and carry on! From Singapore

really love your work keep it going thank you
