Par DATESMAN KYLE. Perhaps the first 5-string banjo book of its kind, Renaissance and Elizabethan Music for Banjo consists entirely of music from these early periods and provides banjo players with \'growing material\'?that is, the opportunity to play in a number of different keys besides G major. This detail alone will expand your banjo horizon by requiring the use of unusual chord shapes. Written for classical banjo enthusiasts who want to further enhance their musicianship, some selections reveal one of the earliest aspects of music theory, that of modal scales. Various compositional forms and unfamiliar tempos are also introduced in arrangements that will help you become less dependent on the open fifth string. This type of music would be extremely difficult to learn by ear, so a book of tablatures should prove to be invaluable. Every piece is presented first in a vertical chord arrangement, which was the way it was originally intended? and then arranged in a linear horizontal style more familiar to modern players. Every tune is accompanied by performance notes supported by a helpful glossary. Written in tablature only with access to online audio, these pieces also make great finger-limbering exercises! Includes access to online audio. / Date parution : 2022-01-18/ Recueil / Banjo

Whether you're explaining how to cook food or make great music, there are two approaches that can be taken to writing a cookbook. One way is to give the reader a bunch of recipes and explain 'here's how to make the dish'. Another way is to teach them how to cook, by sharing with them techniques for mixing flavors and the knowledge of when, where and how to apply heat. With ideas on how to add your own touches, it is easy to make the dish - or the tune - your own.The Clawhammer Cookbook takes the second of these paths. Michael Bremer doesn't tell the reader how to play the songs, he teaches ways to approach, arrange and personalise any tune - helping them to develop their own unique style.The Clawhammer Cookbook features old-time music, as well as pieces in a few other musical styles. This book comes complete with a CD, containing demos of all the songs and examples, to aid in the learning process. / Banjo

Introducing New T3N Harmonic Chimes. The definitive text on playing harmonics (chimes) on the 5-string banjo in G tuning! In addition to traditional chiming methods, the author's new T3N technique for creating banjo harmonics will add new dimensions to your playing. While particularly useful in the three-finger style, T3N can be used in other banjo styles and on other stringed instruments. Most banjo players are familiar with playing open-string harmonics on the 5-string banjo over the 12th, 7th and 5th frets, or perhaps the 4th and 9th frets, so that in typical G-tuning, the open G-chord, D-chord, octave G-chord, and B-chord notes are chimed. With the T3N technique presented in this book, entire scales can be chimed, with other harmonic effects including choking and sliding possibilities! The first part of this book provides a review of traditional banjo harmonic chiming techniques, while the second part explores the exciting new T3Napproach. Written in tablature only, for 5-string banjo in GDGBD tuning./ Méthode / 5-String Banjo
