Our greatest hope is to see the mandolin become more mainstream in the jazz world. Master Mandojazzer, Don Stiernberg expressed it best in a phone conversation we had a couple years ago, where he shared his dream was that our kids would grow up in a world where mandolin was just as much a jazz instrument as a sax, trumpet, or piano in "conventional" thinking...
We're doing out best at JazzMand.com to make that happen, hoping to educate a new generation of jazz mandolinists.
Speaking of Stiernberg, did you happen to catch his 2004 interview with Jazz Improv Magazine in one of their "Sketches" conversation with the Don?
