The banjo inspired a great variety of playing styles in the South during the 19th and 20th centuries. On this video, Mike Seeger presents an overview of mid-20th-century styles, helping you develop a full range of traditional techniques and repertoire. Each lesson features a complete performance of a song or tune (each one played on a different historical banjo), commentary on its style and source, and detailed instruction for playing it. Songs: Down South Blues • Last Night When My Willie Come Home • Wabash Blues • Bright Sunny South • Roll On John • Needlecase • Come My Little Pink • I'm Head over Heels in Love.
The material presented here is based on Mike Seeger's Grammy-nominated Smithsonian CD Southern Banjo Sounds.
