Learning the Tenor Banjo
Submitted by diana on February 9, 2010 - 11:28am
Back in the fall, I was approached about playing the tenor banjo for the Washington & Lee Symphony rendition of the Afro-American Symphony. I didn't...yet....play the tenor banjo, but I do play the guitar, the banjo, and miscellaneous other string instruments, so I looked at the part. It consisted of 37 measures. How hard could it be? So, I signed up. I figured it's winter, and though I had no inkling of the number of days I would be snowed in, I figured winter is still a great practice season.
