关于此电子书

With its wealth of information on how technique can be tastefully applied, Back-Up Banjo is the definitive book on the subject of banjo accompaniment. Since a banjo player in a band plays accompaniment at least 75% of the time, it is extremely important to master playing in this style. Janet Davis offers specific suggestions for accompanying a vocalist or instrumentalist in a variety of styles-- and then provides musical examples illustrating her points. Janet breaks her concepts down into their basic components, making them crystal clear in lay terms. The various back-up techniques are separated into categories determined by song tempo, by lead instrument being accompanied, and by the area of the fingerboard in which the chords are being played. In notation and tablature.

Includes an extended play audio recording which demonstrates the examples in the book. Includes access to online audio and video.

作者简介

Janet Davis is mostly associated with the retail music business, but it is her role as a musical educator in which she has made her most lasting contributions to the banjo world. As a part of the tiny music instrument and accessory business that she began with her husband, Jim, in 1978, Davis began selling self-produced instructional publications as well. Since then, she has established herself as a respected clinician and author, appearing at hundreds of musical events around the country as well as regularly contributing to the Banjo Newsletter. Davis has evolved into one of the world's most prolific authors of banjo instructional publications, with over 100 titles published by Mel Bay alone. In 2019 she was inducted into the American Banjo Museum Hall of Fame.
