Publisher's summary

If you study nature closely you will understand the strategies and techniques that the natural world has developed over millions of years! Many of these strategies can be applied to the banjo. With practice, your banjo playing will become enjoyable, natural, and effortless! Nature flows. Wind and water move effortlessly through an environment filled with obstacles. Observing plants and animals can teach us how they accomplish amazing feats with minimal effort. You might be thinking, "I'm not a tree or drop of water. What does this have to do with me?" Well, that's what I hope to explain in this book. I have gleaned these insights over a lifetime study of music and nature, and now I will show you how to apply them to your banjo playing.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.

Not just for banjo players

This is one of the best audio books I’ve ever listened to. Rick McKeon is a very good teacher and his idea of observing nature and applying it to playing banjo was brilliant and it really resonated with me.
