  2. Great compilation. There’s something magical when classical music is played on a “popular” instrument like a banjo or a mandolin. I especially favour the banjo. The staccato sound of the banjo sounds really sweet and melancholic to me, less “grandiloquent” than a classical violin or cello, and for that very reason more expressive and moving. Loved it!
