Classes
Beginners 5-String Banjo - with Garry MacFadden
Overview
Class Code – B5M
MONDAY class for BEGINNER level 5-string banjo.
As the 5-string banjo is primarily an American instrument, Garry will teach “Scruggs” (‘Duelling Banjos’ /‘Foggy Mountain Breakdown) style. Though the classes are aimed at primarily Scruggs style, they will look at melodic “Keith” style, single-string “Reno” style and a 5-string approach to Celtic traditional tunes.
The classes will be fun and informative. (Guitarists may find banjo easy to adapt to – there are some similarities between the instruments).

- 7:30-9:15pm Monday
- Kelvin College, 2 Haghill Rd, G31 3SR
