Cuckoo YouTube video by Sam Amidon - Topic

We’re getting going slightly this morning by building “a log cabin on a mountain so high.” Of course there’s that warbling cuckoo there, that symbol of infidelity, but “she’ll never say cuckoo ‘till the 4th of July.”

Hard to classify and deliberately so, Willows brings together Pekka Kuusisto, the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra, and folk singer Sam Amidon in a programme that moves freely between classical repertoire, contemporary music and American folk songs.

oh yeah !

Today's music lesson for all y'all guitarists…

It's funny we spend so much time in "standard tuning" when the following players were rarely in it: Curtis Mayfield (F#A#C#F#A#F#), Keith Richards / Ry Cooder (DGDGBD), Joni Mitchell (DAEF#AD), Skip James (DADFAD), Nick Drake etc -and even Jimi was a half step down from standard

LP: Willows - Pekka Kuusisto, Sam Amidon, Norwegian Chamber Orchestra

#nowplaying

Violinist Pekka Kuusisto is not afraid to ruffle a few feathers On his new album, the violinist completely rethinks The Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams, and leans into old folk songs with the help of Sam Amidon.

I always appreciate Tom Huizinga when he's on NPR Music programming.

This piece is beautifully, and fittingly, written about an incredible album released just yesterday.

Willows, by violinist Pekka Kuusisto, the Norwegian Chamber Orchestra, and the wonderful Sam Amidon on vocals.
