Homie just dropped the most incredible flawless octave mandola solo ever and then apologized for his picking, like bro we aint event notice, you're all good 👏👏👏
I just bought an Eastman, thanks to J.P.Cormier's influence and love it! Looking forward to seeing you an J.P. in concert together! You are both an inspiration to all of us wannabees!!!!!!!
I have an Ashbury Cittern and Irish Bouzouki, both great instruments that really open up after being played for awhile. The Irish Bouzouki just rings out once the top loosens up!
@@lindamon8 I had always understood that the term tenor mandola was what folks in Europe called what we in the U.S. call an octave mandolin. (Although I've seen Nordic music videos where they just use the term mandola for an OM... I wonder what they call a regular mandola?). How would what you call a tenor mandola be tuned, and in what range would it fall?
C.A.T. The tenor Mandola would normally be tuned CGDA with the same range as the viola, although I presently have mine tuned DAEB (with light gauge strings.
@@lindamon8 My understanding of the mandolin family is they have traditionally followed the violin family in tuning and range. So a mandolin is tuned to the same notes and pitches as the violin (GDAE), the mandola to the viola (CGDA), the mandocello to the cello (CGDA an octave lower than the mandola), and the mando-bass like the bass viol (EADG). The octave mandolin is an instrument outside the usual tradition, tuned commonly GDAE an octave below the regular mandolin, though tuned otherwise also. So I'm still confused about what you call a tenor mandola, which it seems you're describing as usually tuned the same as a regular mandola... in which case, how is it different? I'm not meaning to be persnickety, I'm just genuinely curious!
Can someone clarify for me? I know naming conventions vary based on location. Is this a mandola, but an octave lower than usual? It sounds really nice. Can someone post the actual notes for each string?

I'm not sure if I've ever wanted to magically be able to play a specific instrument quite as much as I do when I watch this video. What a great sound!
I love his laugh! He’s in love.
Lovely to see someone so thrilled about something so positive
You are so lucky to have tim in your shop ......
Tell him please to come back to dunnimg
He is genious ...and belongs to us ...lol lol
This fellas enthusiasm and joy with this is enough to convince me to get one myself. Love it. Beautiful sound too.
Must’ve watched this 20 times - what a lovely sounding instrument played by an incredible musician! 👌🏼
Years ago I had the good fortune to play with Tim on more than one occasion, I have never met anyone with more enthusiasm for playing music.
OMG... I am just slowly picking my way through the Jig of Slurs. Then I see this. Bravo!
Tim Edey is a treasure ! Does anyone have more joy and fun making great music ?!! Thanks Tim Edey !!
I was there two weeks ago and bought an Ashbury Rathlin bouzouki secondhand for £239. Great sound, good Deal, friendly people
I've just bought one. Haven't received it yet. What do you think of yours?
This gent restores faith in humanity.
Great picking. And love the joy you show. I feel the same way when I pick up my Ocatave Mando but I don't play as well. Still love it!
I just love this video. Great playing and unbridled enthusiasm.
what a treat that was. thank you, Tim.
I get a sense of adventure when i listen to this. Incredible playing!
Very much a kid in the candy shop! Love your energy and talent

Wonderful playing!!!!
Sounds bloody lovely
I was given a tenor banjo, then I found my way to the mandolin, now I need this hing.
Beautiful !
Lovely we’ll played👍
Great playing, and just got toget another, and I know that feeling well!!!
That is just brilliant, talented!

Ah god I need one now
hell yeah brother
Awesome vid !
stunning
Holy smoke, what a player.
Nice right hand, you're an artist.
That is mighty!
Nice sound! Is an "octave mandola" the same thing as a "mandocello"?
Thanks!
Nice Irish style playing
love you buddy - talk soon Tim
He is a masterful player wow sounds like 3 people playing
Looks like a Hathaway style tailpiece rather then the Ashbury standard, any other mods I wonder. Does sound very good.
what is the octave mandola played template please?
Absolutely loved that. Are they tuned GDAE like a violin?
They're actually tuned CGDA like a viola or cello. :)
That’s not correct. Octave mandolins - known as octave mandolas in the uk - are largely tuned gdae or gdad. Tenor mandolas are generally tuned CGDA.
Who's a happy lad :)
What happens musically at 0:50? I like it and I can't quite get my head around it.
Sounds like some kind of 3 over 2 accent... I think instead of accenting 1 and 4 as usual in jig rhythm, he accents 2, 4 and 6... but I may be wrong.
💖🌼
Does anybody know the name of this song?
i wonder how funk and blues sound on one of these
Does the reel he’s playing have a name?
It's a Jig called "The Jig of Slurs" :-)
What tune is he playing there
This is actually an octave mandolin, right? Wouldn't an "octave mandola" be a mandocello?
You are correct...but many people in the uk call them octave mandola, just to distinguish from the tenor mandola, I guess.

Octave mandolin or tenor mandolin due to being a tenor voice source like an Irish tenor banjo with exact same tuning.
Can someone clarify for me? I know naming conventions vary based on location. Is this a mandola, but an octave lower than usual? It sounds really nice. Can someone post the actual notes for each string?
I believe what’s called an Octave Mandola here in the U.K. would be considered an octave mandolin in the States
UK tenor mandola = US mandola
UK octave mandola = US octave mandolin
The strings are the same tuning as a mandolin G-D-A-E
@@ianastley3489 Instead of octave mandola the UK term should be baritone mandola or baritenor mandola.
In Mongolia, we call them a Mangola
What’s this reel?
Anyone know the tune?
jig o' slurs - but he didn't really play it all the way through!
@@christaylor2070 cheers!
Anyone know what the tune is called?
Jig of slurs
Nice instrument, but you put any instrument in the lovely Tim Edey’s hands and he’ll make it sing. 😊
Ein sehr schönes und prima klingendes Instrument ist die um eine Oktave tiefer als die Mandoline besaitete, größere Mandola.
