G’day! In this Devil’s Dream: Banjo Lesson, we’ll take a look at the basic melody of the tune for the intermediate picker, focusing on the single-string technique. Devil’s Dream is a traditional fiddle tune in the key of A. It has challenging left hand note combinations featuring both arpeggios and scale passages and is a great work out for your right hand, alternating between the thumb & index fingers during many 8th note passages, but is darn fun to play & a great session tune!
