Caterina Lichtenberg and Mike Marshall - Bach Gigue in Dminor

Another piece videotaped by Northwestern University of Caterina and Mike, during the Mandolin Magnificat event.

To quote Mike....."Mando cellos came from a time when giant mandolins roamed the earth"! I had the pleasure of playing the John Monteleone mando cello that Mike is playing in this clip....it was simple the best!

O.h m.y g..a..w..d. That was soooo good! Thanks for sharing this. Really extraordinary. I wish I could have been there for that concert.

[@syadkir]

Love both their playings !! thanks!!

Mandocello is a mandola tuned one octave below the standard mandola.

[@louis91160]

Sublime. It just does not get better than this.

[@syadkir]

Very nice mandocello arrangements for this....Marshall rules !!

[@sonomabob]

Let me know if I am wrong, but I am sure that Mike wrote the cello part. What kind of a world is it where this gets only 1800 hits? So nice.

[@herbertwells8757]

Better worlds don't have KZbin at all.

[@Mandolin1944]

Totally wonderful!! It is my understanding that Mike composed the mandocello part himself. Anyone confirm that?

[@ArnaudLACHAMBRE]

Excellente version... et quel swing!!!

[@Mandolin1944]

@tynank Not at all. mandolin = violin (G3 D4 A4 E5); mandola = viola (C3 G3 D4 A4); mandocello = cello (C2 G2 D3 A3). And mandolins tuned in fifths came before guitars (E2 A2 D3 G3 B3 E4), which tuned in fourths The two instrument families are not related. (

[@MrRandblues]

WOW!That duet was really cool but, I really have to tip my hat to that mandolin player she smoked on that piece 4 double strings up : )

[@composerdoh]

Remarkable. Only thing- was it just my speakers or was there this very slight feedback on the higher registers in the 1st couple of minutes?

[@amoreytube]

They make it look easy!

[@tynank]

@Mandolin1944 By guitar violin I meant played with plectrum like modern guitars, not tune like, but thanks for the clarification

[@wupeide]

Love these two people!

[@Mandolin1944]

@tynank LOL a quick glance at your channel confirms that you indeed know how to tune a mandolin! Some excellent videos there!

[@sheikwake]

TONE!!!

[@syadkir]

@hhold I'd bet he did it himself , having known him for his arrangements for the mandolin quartet he had a few years ago...

[@tynank]

@omoshiroidayo Mandocello (ADGC) just like a mandoLIN is a guitar vioLIN a mandoCELLO is a guitar CELLO.

[@JustFiddler]

very cool!

[@musicamusa5127]

Eccellente e impetuosa comr il Vesuvio.

[@wupeide]

Who wrote that bass line?

[@UT1338]

Bach, of course

[@behemothboy11]

I want to be her mandolin in every way:)
