Wow, this is fantastic, Bill and Emily! Emily, you sing like an angel, and I absolutely love the way you set Love's Philosophy to music -- beautiful tune! Best fo both of you. BTW, it was great to hear and see you today at the Celtic Festival. I've already been enjoying your CD (bought a copy there!)
Phenomenal! Such talent! Emily's voice with Billy's gorgeous guitar playing- couldn't be a better combo! I will recommend their music to all my clients who need a mood boost or just to experience such sublime serenity!
I am lost in admiration for the superb rendering of Percy Bysshe Shelley! I didn't even know Percy had a girlfriend. You must have hypnotized her with your music!!
PB Shelley not only had a girlfriend/wife (Mary Shelley), she's the one who wrote Frankenstein. If he wrote this poem for her, I can understand why she had all those kids with him.
Wonderful video. Can you tell me the name of the stringed instrument in the first song of the presentation. I am thinking a mandolin, but not quite sure.
Thanks for the kind comments! The instrument is an Irish bouzouki, made for me by Dave Freshwater in Scotland. It has 10 strings, the 1st 8 of which are tuned like a mandolin, only an octave lower. The lowest 2 strings are tuned to D, at least the way I string 'em. Some people refer to it as a cittern. I do love playing it!
lovely!
