Nigel Woodhouse does a great job introducing the mandolin in this film. It's fascinating how composers have used it to add a unique, folk-inspired color to orchestral music over the centuries.

The combination of aged European spruce, American maple, and Cuban mahogany must give it a rich, unique tone. I'd love to hear Ian and Tom play a few more tunes on it!

The Scandinavian polska sounds fantastic on the Phoenix Neo Bluegrass mandolin. It’s great to see such a rich piece of Nordic folk tradition brought to life.
