This ensemble was formed in the mid-'80s as the brainchild of <a href="spotify:artist:2WJmZq6fEmecdQVd3s38jE">Mike Marshall</a>, an internationally acclaimed mandolin player best known for his work with <a href="spotify:artist:5udgy2xk333j33hKnwDz8O">David Grisman</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4I69trrDu38WlHbNNcsY4c">Montreux</a>. <a href="spotify:artist:2WJmZq6fEmecdQVd3s38jE">Marshall</a> was looking for a way to bring respectability to an instrument primarily known for bluegrass and quaint folk tunes. Toward this end, he established a string-quartet-style group featuring the extended family of mandolin instruments. <a href="spotify:artist:2WJmZq6fEmecdQVd3s38jE">Marshall</a> and Dana Rath play standard mandolins (which take the place of violins), John Imholz plays mandocello (with a range similar to the cello), and Paul Binkley holds up the middle with his mandola (the alto counterpart to the viola). Together they interpret well-known classical works and premiere newly commissioned compositions of "serious mandolin music." ~ Linda Kohanov
