This method
is designed for learning
the finger style
five-string banjo in a
larger musical context
than previous single
style based methods. The
Modern 5-String Banjo
Method builds the
theoretical and technical
foundations needed to
play in many styles.
Beginning with a thorough
grounding in the scales
and chords coupled with
well thought out
fingerings in the keys of
C, Am, and G, the student
is presented with
melodies, chord melodies,
the folk strum,
arpeggios, and the
beginnings of the
bluegrass banjo style.
The varied and beautiful
musical studies and
exercises come from many
traditions and offer a
logical and organic
approach to learning the
five-string banjo leading
the student to an
authentic understanding
of the processes and
techniques needed for
creating music on the
five-string banjo. The
Modern 5-String Banjo
Method is in tablature
only. Includes access to
online audio.
