The
world of melodic jazz
banjo soloing is revealed
in this comprehensive
method which leads a
student from basic
intervals to advanced
theoretical concepts and
finally to a firm
foundation in jazz
fundamentals. Included
are over 90 exercises and
examples written in both
tablature fingerings and
standard music notation
which show how scales and
arpeggios are used and
how they apply to real
playing situations. Every
five-string banjoist can
benefit from the
information contained in
this breakthrough volume
whether they aspire to
jazz or just want to find
out more about the
possibilities and
structure of the
banjo.Starting with basic
intervals, Straight-Ahead
Jazz for Banjo shows the
structure of all basic
chord types and qualities
and matches these to the
scales that generate
them. The books basic
concept model is to treat
the five-string banjos
potential in an inclusive
technical context so that
the student can make use
of open and fifth strings
to create a smooth legato
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
keys. Topics include
functional major and
minor key harmony,
diminished and augmented
scales and how they are
used, and the integration
of altered scale
substitutes in the art of
jazz improvisation. It
stresses listening and
learning in a logical
structured manner with an
example of a daily
practice plan. The unique
emphasis of the book is
on the fingerings which
make the instrument work
for you technically and
thus open up added
possibilities for the
development of a students
personal style. This
long-awaited volume will
surely bring new focus
and perspective to any
banjo style and will be a
classic reference for
many new generations of
banjoists. Includes

audio.

This solo
collection presents 19
iconic melodies from the
American traditional song
book plus 6 modern
original compositions by
William Bay, president of
Mel Bay Publications; all
selections have been
arranged in tablature for
the 5-string banjo in
gDGBD tuning by
Catalonian
multi-instrumentalist and
bluegrass specialist,
Llu?s G?mez.Any
collection of American
ballads would be
incomplete without
settings of the beautiful
melodies penned by
Stephen Foster, several
of which appear here
including Beautiful
Dreamer, Darling Nellie
Gray, I Dream of Jeanie
with the Light Brown
Hair, and Hard Times,
Come Again No More. Some
of these tunes are
arranged in uncommon
banjo keys, all without
retuning the banjo or
using a capo. These keys
may be challenging at
first but will teach you
a lot about the banjo
fretboard.The authorÃ?s
generous preface offers
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.

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.
