mandolin lessonsOne of our mandolin students has written a great review of his experience taking online mandolin lessons with Mike Marshall. He posted this in the forums at the School of Mandolin but we wanted to showcase it here on the blog so everyone can read it. We've also linked to two of his Video Exchanges so be sure to click on the images below to watch. 

I've been a member of the Mike Marshall School of Mandolin (MMSM) for a little over one year now (first video submission response was on 12/24/11) and I'd like to share my thoughts on how it has gone.

One word: AMAZING. If you look at my first exchange and compare it to my most recent exchange, there is no comparison.

acoustic music seminarHere's a nice promo video for the Acoustic Music Seminar put on by the Savannah Music Festival. Mike Marshall put together an array of virtuoso musicians to work with some of the best young string players in a week long series of master classes. Instructors include Mike Marshall, Tony Trischka, Julian Lage, Chris Thile, Bruce Molsky, Zakir Hussain, Daniel Hope, David Fincklet, and Edgar Meyer. The idea is to immerse the kids with some of the top players in the world and work with them in small groups to create their own compositions. The week ends with a concert featuring the kids and their instructors called Stringband Spectacular. They're currently accepting applications for the 2013 Acoustic Music Seminar so if you're 22 or younger and have the chops be sure to apply
