You out do yourself with each video. You have now become my favorite artist of 2023. Two things: 1., I want to hear MORE of your compositions; 2., I’d like to see you play with more of the ethnic/folk instruments of Eastern Europe (i.e. Gayda, hurdy gurdy, tamburitza, accordion, etc.). Keep up the beautiful music.
