Set of Reels by Hugo Axe
Set of four reels I’ve made in the last year or so and I couldn’t decide wether to play it mellow or fast but I guess it kinda decided it for me.

Weird Key and cross of tunes but I learned the first two from recordings of Sky Kelsey banjo and bouzouki, and the last one from Tijn Berends. Both are unbelievable musicians that inspire everyone in the community to play and get better. My cittern/bouzouki was made by the great Valerio Gorla

Three Tunes I love very much played in f. The first(full name Dessie O’Connor’s Páidín Ó Raifeartaigh) I learned from Mick O’Brien and Caomhin O’Raghallaigh’s Deadly Buzz album, followed by the Cullen. But I learned the Cullen and the third tune from Bouzouki collector extraordinar Marty Smith and Sky Kelley

Second Day with the new instrument and my golly I can’t express how much I love it. The first is a tune written by the genius Tijn Berends and the second I learned from Mick O'Brien & Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh.

I learned both this and Träskovals från Skäralid from a cittern player named Ale Carr and the GDGD tuning does a nice job of Mocking the lower fifth string of a cittern.

I usually play in GDAD but thought I’d try GDGD for some specific tunes that require a 5th distance for the top strings, and it works pretty well.

    I thought I knew a lot about instruments, so finding out about the cittern and its modern players has been an unexpected joy recently! As someone interested in aquiring one and getting up to speed, I hope you see this and let me know where to go looking?

      There is a Facebook forum called the Irish Bouzouki Forum that often lists new and previously owned Bouzoukis along with a lot of other cool info. I found Mr. Gorla on there and really liked the quality of instruments and all for a decent price.

      @@hughwiththezouk2982 Well, everything lights up ! Tijn Berends is the most impressive soloist I have discovered at the bouzouki. And only with a four strings (or four course) "cittern"... I guess you wondered (like me, listening to him), why add a course more ! And on which side : bass or treble ?... All the best.
