Reels: Toss The Feathers / The Gravel Walks / The Virginia
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- A set of reels for the ITM course I'm teaching. I don't know if this camera angle makes any sense though..
Melody: tenor banjo (Pilgrim Celtic Dawn)
Backing: Irish bouzouki (APC), I tried a pick made of oak (by Pickat) and it's got a nice grip of a thick pick but still decent bite.
I uploaded the sheet music complete with the backing chords at irish.muualla.n...
Thanks, really like the camera perspective, very clear and natural from the viewpoint of the player. New to tenor banjo, great set!
Hypnotic!
Greetings from the Basque Country.
Awesome finger work there. Nice to have such a clear unobstructed view!
Yes, the camera angle is just fine. Great view of the left hand work.
Just started to learn the tenner banjo keep posting vids I love them thankyou
Magnificent playing !
Great set well played. I'm sure that folks will get a lot out of the course.
Wow man
Such a sweet music
My ears wanted to listen again and again
😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲😲
I would love to see the right hand as well but this is a great video! Super helpful and I love those crisp and clean triplets!
This it's just beautiful.
Cracking tunes very well played thanks !
Makes great sense, thank you!
Awesome! Thank you!
As always brilliant
Fabulous. Such a talent..
Very useful video, thanks. Six dislikes, some real sad people around.
Those thumbs down are from 5-string players who can't play this stuff.
Those Dislikes are from australians people
Love your playing
Freakin awesome.
Tremendous. 🤩👍
Mighty love this thank you.😗
the players talent is versatile!
Fingers moving like an intelligent spider, who just wants to play music!
It's a married spider 😂
magic
🙏🍀
This can also be played on a mandolin, yes? I love guitars, banjos, mandolins, ukuleles, fiddles .. anything with strings on it. Thanks for the upload.
Sure, mandolin is in the same tuning so this should transfer directly
hehe... i call it wooden music
😁😁😁
I always tune my G to the G on guitar, if you use an electronic tuner you can end up tuning an octave too low which will make your strings loose
Love it !!
🪐⭐️💫💥
Magical fingers. 😊

Don’t get no finer. Thank you for enhancing the world when the world is in such chaos.
Any chance you can comment w the backing chords for "Toss the Feathers?" I play the Em version and can't seem to find them.
I've got the sheet for the whole set up at irish.muualla.net/reel/toss-the-feathers-gravel-walks-virginia/
@@NiiloSirola , THANKS SO MUCH! Btw, video sounds great too!
Lol why is this in captain Sinbad's "watches once" playlist
Tis indeed a mystery 🤔
Sounds amazing can you tab this song?
There's sheet music at irish.muualla.net/reel/toss-the-feathers-gravel-walks-virginia/. The problem with tab is.. for which instrument? Because they would all be different
Cool thanks man much appreciated
I’m here cause of captain sinbad
With these pieces all I see is flying fingers!
What string gauges/brand do you use? My strings always seem to be to loose, in GDAE tuning that is.
At the moment they're D'Addario LE011, LE018P, LE026PB and LE036P. Depends of course on the scale length and trim how loose they feel. I've got mine trimmed pretty close
maybe bring them up an octave?
5 strings necessary?
This isn't normal for me, but here goes: 500th 👍
Rattle it lovely
how do you pick triplets?
Without thinking much about it, apparently :D
It seems I'm almost always alternate picking, but trying to downpick on the beats. So for example consecutive quarter notes would be all down-picked. And if I do a triplet, that reverses the pick direction so I seem to reverse that back within the next couple of eights back into downpicking on the beats.
what is this instrument?
The Banjo.
Great technique.
Haha, just don't take any technique advice from this, this is me trying to fret each note as visibly as possible, while desperately trying to keep the ol' thumb out of the way :)
Niilo Sirola Ok, sounds good though. 🙋
Awesome!!, just a question, which would be the Guitar Tuning, much appreciated!!
770carlo I would have accompanied this in DADGAD tuning, but standard is just as fine if that feels more natural
