    Beautiful Appalachia where Scotland, Ireland, and West Africa came together to make music.

      kyle robinson yes because they both have African traditions in their music just like the American south.

    🎶⛩When those old minstrel songs get found while the player is building into the tune...it brings to life a sound from places with dark coveys and big trees...from places people just don't hear much from anymore.

    That second tune is called 'Camptown Hornpipe' in the Briggs 1855 banjo instructor, and I think it appears under another name in at least one of the later tutor books.

    Enjoyable. I've tried stroke style but I never liked how it sounded when I do it. Funny think is, I like how everybody else does it, like your technique. Of course it might be that I come from a guitar picking background, so I finger pick my gutstring banjo.
    I've enjoyed other music videos of you...and the groups you've been in.

    Thank you for posting this. I'm hunting for the right banjo for me (without being able to try them out at the store since there aren't any near me) and this helped. So far Ive learned that I definitely will use gut strings, like a resonator but an open back is nice too. Banjo is just so peaceful 😊

    She plays with such passion, that is Lovely. She resembles another Musician who also plays and creates music with a passion, by the Name of Tokio Meyers.

    I'd like her to play a Vess L. Ossman or Fred Van Eps version of the Poet and Peasant Overture. (classical banjo at it's finest).

    • @villeikonen6221
      @villeikonen6221 8 лет назад +5

      The original shamisens had a cat skin stretched over the box. You should be able to see the nipples.
      The strings were made of silk. Can't go wrong with silk and nipples!
