A good book for a beginner...
2010/2/17
I bought this book because I wanted a new approach to learning the banjo. And that's what you get here. Especially if you have to find your way to the different styles without a teacher. For a budding novice it is really confusing to buy a manual: Should I learn clawhammer or Scruggs-style banjo or concert style banjo or classical banjo or a folky type of style ? On your own you're sure to spend money on books you don't want and need. "Had I known before what's inside, I wouldn't have bought it", you tell yourself quite often. But your bucks are gone.
Alan Munde's book helps you get a good first glimpse of the different styles, so that you can decide later on which musical way to follow. It leads you step by step forward, the speed is well adapted for a beginner, the CDs are excellent and really helpful and don't put you off because there are no boring rolls exercises. In fact this method integrates the banjo again into "normal" musical instruments instead of separating it and making it a bluegrass ghetto instrument.
Don't get me wrong: I love bluegrass and old-style music but I think there's more a banjo can do. And Alan Munde's 5-String Banjo Method Grade 1 opens these new horizons. Will there ever be a Grade 2 ? I hope so ! But having mastered this book you can stand on your own feet and explore the world of banjo music more fruitfully because you've got a compass now.
Happy picking !
P.S.: I think if he had added notation and given the rudiments (only !) of playing the banjo with the help of notes instead of "tabs" he would have "liberated" the banjo (and its players) even more.
P.P.S.: A well selected reading list concerning the different styles of banjo playing could be another asset.

5-String Banjo Method Grade 1 by Alan Munde

This is a good self-teaching guide for someone has some music back ground already--possibly with another instrument (stringed) and is seeking to come up to speed on the Banjo. It does not clearly emphasize that it bases itself on the Standard G Tuning, but is commented in the tuning section (they call it "relative" G tuning). This is something that should be made clearer since tuning differences are an issue concerning the Banjo. This of course, if a 1st level book, will predispose you to that tuning. A new student to the instrument might not get that, so that help/lecture should be included in an introduction, if not product description. (A note for Guitar players: be prepared to accept that there is a "high" pitched string on both sides of the Fret-board with a 5-sting Banjo. This is somewhat of a paradigm shift you might not expect, however easily accommodated, especially if you have used alternate tunings on the Guitar. This is not noted which is the sort of (*) detail that is appropriate for a beginner level book.)
This book bypasses (a very good thing) the typical inadequate attempt to introduce Music Theory. I would suggest providing yourself with a separate and focused resource for that subject and possibly review along with this study. It quickly jumps into making a connection with the instrument, with real rhythm notation comments, grafted onto a Tablature format--emphasizing counting with Right Hand Technique. This book focuses more on melody technique with Chord indicators and some fingerboard layout toward the end of the book. Therefore, I would recommend this book with another Banjo Chord book since it does not go far enough to satisfy me. However, the book has value for what it presents if even a little narrowly focused keeping it from being a "great" book (if there were a Grade 2, which I have not seen, book it should be edited back in making this more complete). The spiral binding is a great feature I like seeing in music books. This way they lay flat without fighting with them, and pages breaking out from the otherwise gum binding.
