A Fancy

by John Dowland. Played by Josh Turner on the 8-course lute. Big thanks to Valéry Sauvage (channel: luthval) for showing me how to play this song. Lute made by EMS, recorded on a Zoom H2 Handy recorder and a Sony Bloggie Touch camera.

Very special honestly, but... did you really catch the whole piece it by watching other person's fingers? Regards

@Algaleonable Thanks very much, and yes, I honestly did. I just learn much more easily by ear and sight than I do from sheet music or tablature.

Please, what is the name of this instrument?

Very inspirational-VERY! :)

[200000028]

@Esteelauders The Lute. Thank you very much!

What is it you're studying at school?

[200000028]

@888Murf Digital media production--I will probably changing to recording industry studies next year.

I always get exited every time I see a new 200000028 video in my feed!

Awesome work again brotha!

Well done, Josh, as usual. Your technique is impeccable.

You excell in such a wide variety of music, it amazes me.

Bravo and encore!

Really enjoy this piece, I keep coming back to it. Have you ever played the hammer dulcimer? I think it is in a similar soulful vein as the dulcimer music I heard in Berea KY.

I share your incredible passion for music, but unfortunately, not an ounce of your talent. Keep it up! You can go as far as you want to go with music!

Josh, I've been following your musical endeavors on your channel for a while now, and I am always impressed with your playing ability, and the variety of music you are interested in. You are a fine player, and to be able to play at the level you play at your young age is a wonderful gift. And now you're playing the lute! The instrument sounds absolutely wonderful, and your playing on this beautiful piece is excellent. I am looking forward to your next videos. Don't ever stop playing music!

That does it...I'm now a subscriber!! Great job, Josh. We're already looking forward to the next installment. Thanks from your Kalamazoo "kinfolk."

[888Murf]

@200000028 Perfect! You have the makings of being a real musical treasure!

@Esteelauders Read the video description.

I salute your hardwork learning how to play this instrument. Unfortunately, the lute is an automatic 10 cool point deduction. You must now go find an electric guitar and smash it on stage to redeem yourself. (after you rip it to shreds with the awesomest guitar solo ever!) Haha I'm kidding. I'm just not a fan of the lute. I look forward to your next post!
