One to One Banjo Lessons in Singapore

In Singapore, you can find a few professional Banjo tutors who specialise in playing the Claw-hammer technique or Bluegrass technique of the Banjo. This is good news for students and adults who want to learn to play their favourable musical instrument - the Banjo. It is never too late to learn Banjo lessons and have Banjo tuition.

The Playing Techniques of Banjo

There are two ways to pick a banjo:-
You can pick up with the fingers like bluegrass pickers, or you can hit down at the strings with your fingernail or thumb. Down picking is known as claw-hammer, is the older of the two styles.
The Claw-hammer technique is the older style of playing banjo. It is the claw-like positioning of the hand, and the modern playing styles grew out of it. Claw-hammer involves striking the four main strings in a downward motion using the index or middle fingernail. Simultaneously, the shorter fifth drone string is played with the thumb using a lifting motion. Complex melodies can be played with the addition of techniques such as “drop thumb” and “double thumbing”.
While claw-hammer is largely aimed at creating driving rhythms, variations of the technique allow the player to sound single-string melodic notes, strum harmonic chords, and produce all sorts of percussive effects on the banjo’s head. A whole range of brushing and picking effects gives the banjo the ability to play a lead instrument role, rather than simply being an accompaniment to other instruments

The Bluegrass technique

The Bluegrass technique is playing styles that have been popularized by the banjo players:-
1). Keith style, named for Bill Keith emphasizes melodic figures.
2). Reno style is a three-finger technique with substantial single-string picking, that’s named for Don Reno.
3). Scruggs style, they are played using finger picks and all such styles feature rolls - repeated patterns of eighth notes that are played in eight-note patterns while the player’s left hand chords. By varying the rolls throughout a song, the banjo helps to create rhythms that work within the overriding beat to prevent bluegrass from sounding mechanistic.
4). The Bluegrass banjo has 5-strings. Every 5-string banjo is a Bluegrass banjo. You can learn Bluegrass on any playable 5-string. The difference between a Bluegrass banjo and a non-bluegrass 5-string has to do with construction more than anything.
5). In Bluegrass music, a banjo roll is an accompaniment pattern played by the banjo that uses a repeating eighth-note arpeggio – a broken chord that played in a rising or descending order that subdividing the beat.

Banjo Tutor Provides Personalized Banjo Lessons

2). Practising the chord G, D7, C and many others, fretting banjo tabs of each chord at correct points and pressure to get the correct tune and melody.
3). Teach the student, how to create the third sound by pick up, hit down and slide patterns with the basic standard claw-hammer technique.
