bring out the melody, but
easy enough for a
beginner or intermediate
player to learn quickly.
The tablature in the book
is large and easy to read
with accent marks for
melody notes, as well as
right and left-hand
fingering indications.
This book is not simply a
tablature book. Childrens
Songs for Banjo Made Easy

on learning the chords to
each song, chord
progression charts for
each song, special
learning tips for each
arrangement, a full page
of advice on memorizing
the songs and more. Also,

section of the book Ross
includes a page of
suggestions on the best
use of practice time and
how to develop the skills
needed to succeed with
each piece. Includes

finally to a firm

Jazz for Banjo shows the

concept model is to treat
the five-string banjos
potential in an inclusive
technical context so that
the student can make use

style. Each of the 90
exercises are recorded
with a metronome and
progress to 16 additional
examples of original jazz
phrases in a variety of

and perspective to any

Fiddle
Tunes for Banjo Made Easy
is a collection of
must-know, easy-to-learn
bluegrass instrumental
standards. Ross records
each song at three speeds
and also includes a
rhythm backup track. The
slow speed is ideal for
hearing the notes clearly
and being able to play
along in rhythm; the
medium speed is a perfect
goal for the beginning
and intermediate student
while the faster speed
demonstrates what the
song can sound like with
a hard, driving push. The
tablature is large for
ease of reading and
includes accent marks for
melody notes where
needed. Ross also
provides tips and
suggestions for each song
to save you valuable
practice time. These are
tips on the more
challenging spots that
Ross has learned
firsthand from teaching
these privately for many
years. In addition, there
is a whole page of
instruction on learning
the chords to the song,
how to play the song
using only the chords,
chord charts written out
for each song and tips
for memorizing and
playing without tab.
Fiddle Tunes for Banjo
Made Easy is not just
another tab book; it
covers all the bases and
gives you a realistic
balanced approach for
learning the songs the
EASY way. Includes access
to online audio.

Youve
played Over the
Waterfall, marched along
to Soldiers Joy and
perhaps even found your
fortune while trotting
along on that Old Spotted
Pony. Now its time to
take the next step;
beyond the waterfall to
the land of lesser-played
tunes.Inside this volume
are 40 challenging,
unusual, interesting and
dare I say- extraordinary
tunes. As it includes
standard notation,
clawhammer banjo
tablature, suggested
chords and fiddle bow
markings, this book is
truly suitable for
anyone. A number of
old-time songs also
include lyrics, so you
can sing these great
songs in the old-time
style.Most of the tunes
include notes about their
history and recording
references are provided
if you wish to hear how
they were played and sung
way back when. I
encourage you to take the
time to do that. It may
jump start your stalled
old-time music collection
or as some folks say,
start you a new one.

selections have been
arranged in tablature for
the 5-string banjo in
gDGBD tuning by

melodies penned by
Stephen Foster, several

Dreamer, Darling Nellie
Gray, I Dream of Jeanie
with the Light Brown
Hair, and Hard Times,
Come Again No More. Some

tips on practice,
performance and
interpretation rarely
found in tablature
collections such as
these, but this book has
it all, including online
recordings of each
arrangement.
