Taught By Tony Trischka

Tony Trischka teaches eleven classic pieces, prime examples of banjo playing at its best. You'll learn them, note-for-note, just as they were played by some of the greatest players in the history of the instrument. By learning these tunes you'll not only expand your repertoire, but in the process will also become more flexible in your ability to mix up various rolls, play in several keys without a capo and move more freely around the neck.

Tony performs each tune with John McGann backing him on guitar. He then slows it down, going over the tricky spots and explaining all the right and left hand techniques you'll need to play the piece.

Here are the solos you'll learn:
John Henry - Earl Scruggs
Sitting On top of the World - Alan Shelton
Gold Rush - Vic Jordan
Bye Bye Blues - Alan Shelton
Dixie Breakdown - Don Reno
Old Home PLace - J.D. Crowe
Salt Creek - Bill Keith
Casey Jones - Bobby Thompson
Clinch Mountain Backstep - Ralph Stanley
Little Maggie - Bill Emerson
Doug's Tune - Doug Dillard
