Almost Beginning Bluegrass Banjo: (level 2) A continuation of my beginning class, but appropriate for anyone with a little skill on any other stringed instrument. Using tablature, we'll carefully work our way through basic lead and backup playing as you learn the necessary rolls and techniques used by all bluegrass players. You'll get a chance to practice backup and lead to Jack's singing and guitar playing, in a group setting. Tuesdays 7 to 8pm. $160 requires Jack Tuttle Banjo Collection. Nine weeks.

Bluegrass Jam Class: (level 3) This class is for the bluegrass player (guitar, banjo, mandolin, bass, fiddle, dobro) who wants more experience playing with other people. The repertoire will consist of standard bluegrass songs and fiddle tunes. Students will be coached on jam etiquette, proper balance, backup and fills. Includes lead and harmony singing. Class prerequisite: student must be able to play chords at a steady, moderate tempo and be able to work up solos without help. Nine Weeks, Thursdays 7:30 to 8:45pm . $160
