    As an aspirering banjo student, I was in "Rapt" attention. That was the most beautiful rendition of that song I've ever heard. Absolutely fabulous. Thank You

    Classic was the dominant banjo style in the world from the 1870s until around 1920 and was based on classic guitar. Ragtime banjoists were quite prominent. Joplin dedicated sections of his rags to banjoists. One of the roots of ragtime was what was called banjo piano by pianists who immitated the syncopations Black ande black imitting banjoist played in the mid 19th Century still this is fine music

    This is awesome! I've always thought this would be a good song for the banjo. Been playin' for a while now but have never come across a banjo tab or lesson online. Kudos though man.

    This song suits the BANJO!!! :D I can imagine a cowboy playing this while biting on a grass stem while taking care of a herd of cows

    kudos kudos kudos.
    your sense of cadence is impeccable. so many other people try and put up bits where they play too fast and end up playing sloppily or their cadence shifts during the tune because they never learned to play by starting slowly.
    you sir obviously do not have that problem. egggcellent!

  • @torbenbregnsdal9872

    If you can play this song on banjo, that damn well, you have mastered the Banjo- for sure!

      Its really good the way it is, this guy is amazing. But it does sound more lively at 1.25.

    Either instrument can be as complicated as you want to make it, but the banjo is physically easier to play. Fewer strings and lighter gauge.

    Compare to the guitar is the banjo hard to learn to play?

  • @writerrad
    @writerrad 15 років тому

    this ios great but just an extention of classic banjo which was dominant in the time of Ragtime, with more rag recordings on cyclinders than done by piano. The masters like Van Eps and Ossmon played much faster than this
