Bouquet of Flowers (Bernardo de Pace) - Classical Mandolin Solo

One of my favorite mandolin books is a book edited by Hugo d'Alton named A variety of Mandolin Music. And one of my favorite pieces in this book is "Bouquet of Flowers" composed by Bernardo da Pace.

I have recorded the music with my ZOOM H2 recorder and added a little compression and reverb to create a fuller sound. Then I made the video with my cheap camera and tried to put it all together - hope you like the result (although it can certainly be made much, much better)

The flower fotos show some flowers in the garden of my father in law which is fantastic every year.

Eines meiner Lieblingshefte für Mandoline ist ein Heft mit dem Titel "A Variety of Mandolin Music" das von Hugo d'Alton herausgegeben wurde. Eines der tollen Stücke darin heisst "Bouquet of Flowers". Ich habe die Musik mit meinem ZOOM H2 aufgenommen, dann das Video dazu mit meiner billigen Kamera. Dann habe ich das Ganze mit ein paar Blumenbildern aus dem Garten meines Schwiegervaters ausgeschmückt - dieser blüht jedes Jahr fantastisch - ich hoffe, das Ergebnis gefällt euch!

Wonderful fluid playing. I wish I was a tenth as good! May I ask what make and gauge of strings you use? Many thanks

@stratnut I think on this mandolin I am using Thomastik (flatwound) medium

@Benj888 Thanks - I am planning to play another tune by Bernardo de Pace this year! First need to learn it well!

What make is your mandolin?

[MandoIsland]

@hhold This mandolin has been built by a German luthier Werner Deschler who is mainly building instruments in the region where I live, mostly for mandolin orchestra players.

Where can the sheet music be purchased?

Brilliant playing and a wonderful piece of music, it makes me want to learn the mandolin now (after playing guitar for over 40 years)

Thankyou for posting this..

@hhold This mandolin was made by Werner Deschler who mainly builds those mandolins for players in the south-west region of Germany and Switzerland. You can find an album with some nice pictures of this mandolin on my homepage mandoisland.de - instruments
