Saw him play the presto when he came out by himself before a punch brothers show and sat on the edge of the stage. I happened to be in the 5th row. Must have been about 400 people there that night. It was dead silence and something I will never forget. A flawless amazing jaw dropping experience. Musicians like CT come around do rarely it’s a wonderful thing. You can’t explain it you have to experience it. A true genius at what he does.
CT isn’t only the best mandolin player to probably ever hold a pick but his mind about thinking about music and being able to deconstruct any genre is amazing. His depth of understanding music and what works and doesn’t and why is genius.
Wonderful interview. I don't see the interviewer credited here: "Marek Eben is a Czech actor, singer, composer, writer and television host." (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marek_Eben)
Blue Chip CT 55 - his backup is a Pro Plec Pro 346 (carried by Ronnie McCory as well as a backup) www.stringsbymail.com/guitar-accessories-2/guitar-picks-360/dandrea-picks-3265/dandrea-pro-plec-789/
XD. I just saw Thile play this one and name it: "Tempo di Borea" from Bach's Partita No. 1 in B minor", so Arthur is right ua-cam.com/video/wE2VctZOcOQ/v-deo.html (Chris Thile performs Bach)
Nothing like an inteligent interviewer 🙌
Chris Thile has worked very hard to become the musician he is.
I appreciate the interview.

Chris could talk about music all day it's the air he breaths.
Frankly, I didn’t even know him before this, but what a cerebral character and a remarkably interesting interview.

What a great interview, thank you so much. Chris is a complete treasure.
Wow. My favorite interview of him ever.
I so love and admire this ‘kid’. What a treasure.
Thanks so much for sharing this. Agreed with others that this is one of the best of his interviews I’ve ever seen
Thanks, my pleasure.

Wow wow wow wow!!!!
Chris didnt sweat but i surely sh@$ myself. What a guy, just phenomenal.
I actually love the tt-t-t-t-t-t
Looks like Chris plays a D'andrea Pro Plec 1.5?
06:53 -07:34. I totally agree with that teacher. That's how it should be
what are those picks he used in this video?

25:18 😂
What is the piece at around 20:30, anyone please knows??
Sonata No. 1 in G Minor II Fuga Allegro?
Brent Hawkins nope. Partita 1 tempo di borea
I think Brett has it: in english it's called a "Bouree", I've seen it in B minor for guitar, it may be in A minor originally.
Thanks to all.
I will look for it for guitar.
A splendid man this Chris

Watching this makes me sad because I'll never be that good at ANYTHING. Some people are simply living on a different planet than the rest of us.
Casually asks if Chris can play the G minor Presto. I realise this is not a prob for Chris but surely you’d check beforehand if he’s up for it?
