S3 6 Mandolin, Maestro, Please

Join Mike for a very special 'Parson and the Songmen' this time around! It's not every day that you happen to get to the chance to have a chat with one of the world's leading mandolinists, composers and all round wit, but this is just what Mike did recently when he met up with Simon Mayor.

Taken from Simon Mayor's biog on his website mandolin.co.uk Please visit for info on all of his work, gigs, workshops, projects, CDs etc

'As well as being an incredible mandolin player, Simon is a fine fiddle player, guitarist, composer, poet and wit. Whether with long-time partner Hilary James or his group The Mandolinquents, his live performances blend dazzling musicianship with poetry both poignant and playful, and a ready supply of humorous anecdotes and off-the-cuff wit. His stages have ranged from primary schools to classical, folk and literature festivals worldwide, and as featured mandolin soloist at orchestral concerts'.

So, sit back, make yourself comfy, and join Mike and Simon now in this latest episode of 'The Parson and the Songmen'.
