Description:

SOUTHERN BANJO STYLES VOL.1 Taught by Mike Seeger The banjo inspired a great variety of playing styles in the South during the nineteenth and early twentieth century. On this in-depth DVD lesson and demonstration, Mike Seeger presents a survey of those styles, teaching each of them to help you develop a full range of repertoire and traditional techniques. This is the first of a 3-volume series covering virtually all of the major banjo styles and techniques, as well as a look at some of the types of banjos that have been played throughout its history in America. Volume 1 focuses on a family of styles generally considered to be of African origin and variously known as clawhammer, frailing, rapping, drop-thumb and down-picking. Each video section features a song or tune with brief information as to its style and source, a complete performance of the piece, and detailed split-screen instruction on how to play it. You'll also see a close-up view of each of the nine banjos used. Mike teaches a wonderful variety of songs that you'll soon be adding to your repertoire: "Soon in the Morning, Babe" an African American clawhammer picking style from Mississippi with gourd banjo; Josh Thomas's "Roustabout" an African American accompaniment technique from Virginia; "Jim Crack Corn" an irregular-accent clawhammer style; "Battle in the Horseshoe" a basic clawhammer tune; "Darling Cora" using Kentucky multi-finger brush technique; "Devil's Dream" in North Carolina up-pick, up-&-down-stroke style; "Little Birdie" using two-finger Kentucky up-pick, down-stroke style; Around the World, in a three-finger up-pick down-stroke style; and "Whoopin' Up Cattle" a clawhammer piece on a double-drone-string banjo. The pieces on this DVD encompass a wide range of difficulty. Some will be easy enough for a near-beginner to be able to play, and an advanced intermediate player will quickly be able to master these pieces and greatly benefit from Mike's program. The material presented here is based on Mike Seeger's Grammy-nominated Smithsonian CD "Southern Banjo Sounds." Afraid I only have volume 1 of the series. A DVD copy, hope it's OK. I'm not to familiar with the mechanics of DVD. Runs OK with Media Player Classic.

Hello Grumpygroo! I just discovered this interesting torrent with Mike Seeger. According to my BitTorrent client 99.5 percent of this torrent is available. Could you please seed it a bit longer so that we can get the missing 0.5 %?
Best wishes from Sweden

To all of you who are downloading this file. If you are stuck on 99.5 % like I am, don't let that bother you. Just open the (seemingly) incomplete files with DVD Shrink, and make an iso file and then burn. For some strange reason this works.

Finally complete, 100 %! I will seed for at least the rest of this week. Thank you very much, Grumpygroo!
