December 15, 2006 | The Sound of Angels: Dayton Mandolin Orchestra

Well, we're in the Spirit, now! We just received the latest recording from the prestigious Dayton Mandolin Orchestra of the Greater Dayton Ohio area. Fellow picker and JD13 mandola string Beta Tester Dave Voyles, promised us a recording of his new strings in an ensemble setting. We had no doubts it would be this professional; and cool, too.

Congratulations Music Director, Allen Richmond and crew... This is a fine recording including such Yuletide favorites as "Lo How a Rose E'er Blooming," "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear," "Sleigh Ride," and many more. Throw in some great classical literature, and you have the recipe for some wonderful mandolin texture.

Get a copy for yourself; hurry, we hear they are almost sold out!
