The Nashville Mandolin Ensemble embodies a musical spirit that swept across
America in the late 1800's and early 1900's, but the NME's music is anything
but a nostalgic re-creation of an old-time art form. It's more like a
discovery of a lost treasure. The unique sounds of a mandolin group--the
pure, bell-like tones and delicate, delineated scale passages; the warm,
emotional waves of an ensemble tremolo--are as new, as exciting and as
relevant to today's music as they were when American audiences first heard
them a century ago. This CD is currently out of print but we hope to have a limited release in the near future.
