Banjo | Ned Luberecki | Advanced | Period 2 | Week 2 (July 14-19, 2024)
In this class we’ll look at “General Banjo Relativity” and how to improvise solos (in several keys) and how to create solos on the fly to bluegrass and a few other styles of songs. We’ll also study “Banjo Quantum Mechanics” and work on crafting solos to songs, fiddle tunes, and other melodies starting with the melody first. Then (as the title implies) we’ll work towards being able to combine both fields into making you a better, more unified, banjo player.
