In part 2 of this introduction to the melodic banjo techniques, we’ll continue to explore scale positions and exercises, while applying these to another great tune, that is sure to enhance your technique. In the lesson we’ll cover:

  • 3 positions of the G Major scale;
  • Discuss the mixolydian & dorian modes;
  • Cover the 6/8 time signature;
  • Work through several exercises;
  • And finally, put it all together with a great tune ‘The Rakes Of Kildare’.

If you’re new to the melodic style, or dabbled a little, this introduction will further your ability and enjoyment of this great way of picking the banjo. If you haven’t already, make sure you start here > Introduction To Melodic Banjo (Part 1).
