Description
The Clawhammer Banjo from Scratch - A Guide for the Claw-less! This comprehensive guide to playing clawhammer banjo begins with the basics. Dan Levenson presents a step-by-step approach, starting with a brief history of the 5-string banjo and an introduction to its parts. You'll learn how to hold the instrument, position your hands, and develop basic clawhammer strumming skills. As you progress through the book, you'll be guided through chords, scales, and individual notes for 12 popular tunes. The online audio component provides access to exercises, slow and up-tempo versions of each tune, as well as a fiddle version of each song. With this approach, you can learn clawhammer banjo from scratch, just like Dan Levenson's innovative Meet the Banjo program. By following along with this book, you'll be able to play your first tunes in no time.
