Welcome to Gospel Tunes For Clawhammer Banjo. After many years of requests by you and the publisher I have made this collection of Gospel favorites available to those of you who play the Clawhammer Banjostyle. The versions of the tabs presented here are neither overly simple nor particularly complex. Anyone with basic Clawhammer skills should be able to play the tab as written or get close enough so they can create a satisfyingversion of each tune for themselves. Includes access to online audio. Should you find you need an instructional book please get my Clawhammer Banjo From Scratch book. You may also wish to see Jack Hatfield's Old-TimeGospel Banjo Solos for 3 finger bluegrass/Scruggs versions of many of the tunes presented here.

Par TWISS TIM. Five-string banjo enthusiasts who play in the stroke, clawhammer or guitar styles will enjoy these 50 melodic, tab-only arrangements. The collection is unique in that it includes reels, polkas, jigs, hornpipes, minstrel songs, ballads, light classics, and a Christmas tune?nearly all in C tuning with the fourth string a step lower than the typical 5-string G tuning. Well-known classical and popular composers: Beethoven, Foster, and Vivaldi, plus collector/historian-authors: Converse, Emmett, Howe, Kerr, O?Neill, and Ryan?are all represented in this book.With the exception of two Twiss originals, the music was chosen from sources available circa 1840 ? 1890. Some of these settings can be used as accompaniment to unison singing; all are designed to lie well on the 5-string fretboard for optimal playability. Using a custom-built fretted, nylon-string banjo, the author has provided online recordings of every tune for ease of learning. / Date parution : 2022-07-20/ Recueil / Banjo
