Of course Brandon is a master of the Lute. He's been playing it since the Renaissance.

[maplehappy]

when i watch your videos i instantly become a teenage girl from 1503 who is absolutely fangirling the the bard. ive got my ankles out, and if things get real crazy, my collar bone.

[xtrisaratops]

Find you a partner who looks at you the way Brandon looks at historical plucked instruments.

[PrevailingFilth]

So even back in the renaissance we had djent players that were adding more and more strings to their instruments, facinating

[randomnobody]

This cat just played Sweet Home Alabama on a lute....

[FranktheTank]

I checked this out not expecting to finish the whole video, but it was so informative and relaxing to listen to that I finished it without even realizing it. You have a great teaching demeanor.

Audience be like: Wow what an extraordinary instrument

[aerextraho]

This man's voice is like a rumbling fire.

[floydhopkins]

Petition to rename the series to "What the Pluck?"

[lambdaprog]

I played one of these marvelous instruments when I was in London a few years ago. It tooks a few minutes to adapt to the frets. They sound fantastic. I'm a oud player.

[etherleo]

There's a character in every single anime that looks exactly like Brandon

[LiveActionKimPossibleRufus]

I want Brandon to voice the audiobooks I listen too. All of them.

[BobThePlayer]

Splendid presentation. High charisma. Inspiring storytelling. Graceful playing. 🙏

[idraote]

When I think of the solo lute, I don't think about me going to a concert hall to listen to it, but about me playing it in my room by myself (I wish...). To me it's like something you play for yourself, not for others.

Of course it was also a great accompanying instrument and I particularly love how it meshes with the human voice.

[veratarasova]

The quality of the video is just beyond

[RockStarOscarStern]

5:05 Plays Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd on Renaissance Lute. Perfect for a Covid19 Lock Down Jam because we can't go out on Stage.

[aronung]

You are reason why I got into the world of classical music

[malcolmeakin]

I would happily sacrifice my eye teeth to be able to play with such feeling and virtuosity. Thanks for all of the uploads Brandon.
