US National Mandolin Champion Radim Zenkl in Solo Concert

Original music crossing the tracks of folk, jazz, new age, bluegrass, flamenco, gypsy, Irish, and classical music, combined with Czech and eastern European traditional songs and instrumentals.
Radim has extended the technical possibilities of the mandolin by inventing a masterful technique, the "Zenkl style," in which a single mandolin sounds like two.
