    Thank you Mandy, I've been invited to an old time jam and I was stressed about it, but this video really started to clear things up for me and give me the basics I need!

      Great, print out a key transposition chart too and have it with you. That will help a ton.

    Mandy, this is one of your best videos!! you made the light bulb in my head come on! lol that graph also is great. i see a lot of people just do the bump ditty strum and change chords and singing, no melody notes per se. i guess then playing a jam, if you know the key and the chords you can strum with the right hand and chord with the left and play backup to the lead??? i am truly loving the banjo.

      I’m so glad that lightbulb turned on!! Those are great moments when that happens. Exactly right. You can play the chords while anyone else is playing the lead. And to go even further (when you get to that point) - then if you know the key (without even knowing the melody) you can play little fills just by staying within your scale notes too. Then if you do know the song just play the melody, then chords, back and forth, or however you like. Lot’s of old time jams everyone just all plays the melody all the time. Me personally I prefer more of a bluegrass style jam where 1 person plays the lead and everyone else backs up, then someone will sing, and the lead will go to the next person next time and so on.

    Hi Mandy. Thanks for this. Apart from learning songs (of course!) what you have shown in this video is, in my opinion, one of the most important lessons I think any banjo player can learn. Without it, all I think any banjo player can do is to muddle through by rote without thought of what they are actually doing, which limits them. I've been playing for just under two years and had a very good banjo teacher who is an excellent musician who plays five different types of instrument (she taught me the basic strum and about 19 tunes/songs in various keys although I don't sing with any yet!). I am now trying to get what I have been taught under my belt and will go back to her when I've done that, BUT surprisingly she didn't teach me the chord progressions or that such a thing existed. I happened to be talking to a fiddle player who mentioned it to me and it's as if a light had come on! I'm using the progressions along with the "Banjo Case Chord Book" by Larry Sandberg which is beginning to make some sense. I'm not in the first flush of youth, but I'm enjoying the journey. There is a lot to learn, but such a load of fun! Keep up the good work.

      I agree Martin, that this is important. But, I feel that for a beginner this may be too much. That’s why I’m introducing it saying that more advanced beginners and intermediates will benefit from it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

      @@BanjoLemonade Yes I totally get that and I think this is why I have only discovered this now. The emphasis up to this point has been "relaxing with the instrument" (not easy at the beginning), timing and getting the right hand to do what it's supposed to do with the banjo. All essential stuff. I'm told that the left hand is "what you know" and the right hand is "who you are". You learn something every day

    I saw this one guy use a capo... he was playing this song called "Clinch Mt. Backstep". I think his name was something like - Ralph Stanley- hahaha! Great video Mandy.

      C'est super! Désolé je ne sais pas comment les faire là où ça vous dira en français. Toutes mes leçons ont des tablatures sur mon site Web, mais encore une fois, ce n'est qu'en anglais.

    In open g tuning find the note of the key you want to play in on the fourth string which will be you number one , move to the third string same fret and that will be your number 4, stay on the third string and move toward head a whole step or 2 frets for your number 5, if you forget to bring your chart

    Hi. I have a question I play guitar easily by ear but I cannot for the life of me, figure out what tunings a banjo song is in so that I can easily learn it. Got any tips? Thanks?

    Hello!
    Really cool video!
    Question : when playing in these different keys, does the 5th string stay stuned to G? Or better to tune it to the root note of each key?
    Thanks!
