Welcome to the April-May issue of Mandolin Sessions. There is so much in this issue. Dix Bruce provides some great information from his new book, "Getting Into Bluegrass Mandolin." New Columnists Seth Austin and Sergio Lara present new columns on Klezmer and Latin mandolin, respectively. Bobby Clark talks to the great Sam Bush and Joe Mendel interviews Mandolin Cafe's Scott Tichenor. Matt Raum and Steve Smith have great contributions and Ted Eschliman shares more great jazz information. Wendy Anthony gives us insight into developing variations. Have fun!
