Build Me Up From Bones - Sarah Jarosz

[@guitarvocs]

I am 69 years old and have played guitar since I was 15. I have played with bluegrass musicians and others who use that traditional instrumentation. Very little surprises me, but until I heard "Jealous Moon" and watched the video, I have never heard of the octave mandolin. Now I'm thinking of selling one of my Taylors and getting one. This sound is piercing my heart. Just my luck, I bet they're not cheap, either.

[@MrPHart]

Depends, buy a Toyota or a Mercedes-Benz and enjoy saving money but having a ugly play or spending money and having a great sound. The nice thing is, you get to make that choice, the bad thing is you have to live with that decision for a long time of happy or not happy f o r e v e r!

[@easong2148]

This woman plays every possible instrument better than any I've ever played any, and that's quite a few. Sarah is awesome.

[@MrPHart]

That woman plays every possible instrument better than "I play the radio", and I'm a really good radio player if I do say so myself, and I do and so do you and.....

[@woodybrison]

One of the nicest things about the mandolin tuning is the way you can slide the finger shapes across the neck as well as up and down the neck

[@MMax-lg9po]

She's brilliant.

[@westrokker]

That’s about the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard…

[@peterwu8471]

So nice to see someone really make these instruments sing!

[@Muchowski_B]

I would listen to this song every morning on my way to work while gazing at the mountains of colorado. Such good memories. Such an amazing song

[@randallsparks8870]

She's amazing ❤

[@saintless]

I love the comment about where you strum, over the neck vs near the bridge... that's where a quality instrument really makes a difference and I only discovered that nuance when I got my first good quality mandolin... can barely hear the difference on my cheap beginner one.

[@garyfarbstein4684]

First heard this lovely song on public radio in Oregon, and bought the CD. Sarah's soul truly shines in her music...and watching her play Build Me Up From Bones literally brought tears to my eyes!

[@Timaustex]

I...freakin...LOVE...this song

[@douglasalan5783]

I saw Sarah open for Richard Thompson many years ago. She was barely 21, and she killed it. So brilliant as a singer, songwriter and a multi-instrumentalist.

[@andrewwalker9476]

Beautiful, thank you x

[@seanmgr1]

Heaven on Earth. Needed more than EVER, Thankyou Sarah for this work of pure love

[@seanmellows1348]

She’s brilliant

[@BarkingForBroccoliBG]

I sent the music video for this song to a beautiful girl I met in 2018 then I married her a year later.

[@billhdowne2382]

I want this cool instrument.

[@achill9603]

Awesome technique and great sound from instrument and voice.

[@joelsimms4636]

Thanks Sarah!! What a way to brighten up Ann already beautiful central TX day!!!

[@81jbear]

She is amazing - love the sound of that Mandochello - or whatever its called

[@thefolkbloke6656]

octave mandolin! the difference is that a mandocello is tuned like a mandola (CGDA) but one octave lower, whereas an octave mandolin is tuned like a mandolin (GDAE) but one octave lower

[@johnvanhoudtmusic6268]

Fantastic! Great job What make and model is this instrument? Wonderful tone.

[@robinhinde6401]

A beautiful instrument in skillfull hands and a wonderful song.Thank you Sarah X

[@kentonkirkpatrick113]

Like Led Zeppelin, everything Sara plays seems to be something I want to hear. Just so "Right"!

Wow! Beautiful. Very poetic.

[@MPolo-no6li]

Simply wonderful

[@pidedpiper2832]

I love your music

[@markfarrow8232]

Sarah has a voice that could calm a raging sea.

[@jstandley3014]

Sweet! thanks Sarah

[@stevenacord7642]

Really great singer 👍

[@tanukibrahma]

I recommend saving up for one of these larger more expensive octave mandolins rather than going for the smaller ones, which don't quite resonate as nicely as this, IME.

[@Michael-xz1nk]

So talented!!!!

[@fetermcblues]

lovely ...and good points

[@ZRJZZZZZ]

She has outstanding technique.

[@patgodzi5346]

'love it

[@lennyringling8438]

Awesome

[@banjoboston6413]

Is this an octave mandolin? I think it is not sure

[@wakingmycadaverful]

Yes it is

[@monkeytennis7477]

How do you tune something with a capo on the fretboard? Doesn't that make tuning difficult? Hmmm.

[@MrPHart]

If your in tune with open tuning, would you not be in tune if you put a capo on? All you have done is shorten the neck with a capo, but I always recheck my tuning after placing the capo on, you know insurance just in case the neck is not straight.

[@sharonmickey4566]

Sarah so young here! soooo talented.

[@guyfaulkes3035]

Only a few years younger than today. So I'd guess around 23 or so. Young compared to Gillian Welch, but a seasoned veteran compared to, say, Billie Eilish.

[@TheIndyspace]

She's going to be 30..! This month, May 2021...And still, so young..! 🤩💜

[@JaneWillowMusic]

Does she use standard mandolin tuning?

[@westrokker]

Can you put mandolin strings on a mandocello?

[@MrPHart]

Maybe but not likely as a mandolin string is shorter, just depends on the length right?

[@pidedpiper2832]

Where do you have to have music inside and you sure keep making it

[@mickaelgauvin4780]

GDAE ?

[@v2807]

Mickaël GAUVIN I think I heard someone at the beginning ask if she had the strings tuned in octaves. She said “the G and the D”. So I think the tuning is Gg Dd AA EE. But capoed at 3. So actually, A#a# Ff CC GG. (If that’s the right way to write it.)

[@davetrafford1609]

I feel like I can identify with her while she's tuning :) After that, I'm outta my league!

[@sharonmickey4566]

I've been in awe of her mando playing since she was in High School.. Her talent blows me away..

[@pidedpiper2832]

You might mention having a really beautiful guitar like makes music for you I’ve got a few of them

[@MrPHart]

"A really beautiful guitar" ... upon close inspection it's a an eight string ... mandolin just like the caption says ... Da!

[@pidedpiper2832]

Music that’s the phone you got a let it rain

[@pidedpiper2832]

You don’t need to talk too much
