Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this banjo class:

For complete banjo beginners, this course will introduce students to the fundamentals of the instrument, musical tablature as well as the basics of music theory. The first half will be spent developing chords, plucking solo melodies and building muscle memory while the latter half will introduce the right hand Clawhammer technique using drills and basic songs. No prior musical experience required. Some participants will be continuing on from Beginning Banjo in the fall, but newcomers are very welcome, and the class will give everyone new skills and tunes.
