Mari Mäntylä plays Orfeo by Koshkin

Finnish guitarist Mari Mäntylä plays Orfeo (I.Adagio, II.Allegretto, III.Adagio) by Russian composer Nikita Koshkin (b.1956) on a 10-string guitar (decacorde). This comes via her great YouTube channel. Great playing by Mäntylä with an excellent dynamic range, phrasing, and long form determination. Love this 10-string guitar, it would be great to hear some Weiss and other lute repertoire on it with original relative tunings.
