5-String Bluegrass Banjo Instructional Tutorial: Blue Moon of Kentucky
Музыка
This is an instructional tutorial 5-string bluegrass banjo lesson teaching an instrumental break for the Bill Monroe classic "Blue Moon of Kentucky." On this video I teach the break -- measure by measure, phrase by phrase, using on-screen tablature, then I put it together -- slowly at first, then faster toward the end, adding rhythm guitar audio overlay and on-screen chord prompts.
Hear this tune played with guitar rhythm backup (slow, medium, fast) starting at 15:00. Guitar chords are provided on-screen.
Free downloadable tab sheets (PDF) and play-along tracks (MP3) for this and many other tunes are available at my website, www.littlerockbanjo.com.
Hope you enjoy.

Bill, you're like a London bus. Nothing comes along for ages then you get two in quick succession!
Hello Bill! I love to play the banjo. Your playing lessons help me a lot in mastering this wonderful instrument. Thank you for helping me learn to play the 5-string bluegrass banjo.
love it, one of my favorite tunes, can't wait to learn that
Super excited to learn this!
Love your lessons so much, keep them coming!
Thanks for this one!....Best wishes, Bill!
Thanks Bill

Great lesson. Great teacher. Thank you.
Here in west oz. Great to hear Texas banjo.
I’m working my way through Ballad of Jed. Going to work through this one next. Thanks for making videos.
great song and love your playing. Wow👊
Thank you sir once again
I’ve been waiting for this
Why would 2 give this a thumbs down? I guess you are charging too much Bill. Thanks very much for all of your lessons.
That last pull-off hits different
It would make my year if you could do a tutorial on how to play “Small farm in Kentucky” by John Anderson, I’ve always wanted to learn it for my dad and I figured it couldn’t hurt to ask
I love this! Thanks for the tutorials. I started learning banjo with your videos and I think I've become a bit of an addict... ;-) Any chance you'd be up for doing the crazy popular (on Tiktok) sea shanty of The Wellerman? I know it's not bluegrass, but gosh it's so beautiful! I see people play it on banjo but can't quite get it....
Bill, great arrangement, but are you going to do an arrangement of the 2nd part of the song ? It was on that moonlight night, etc...
Thank you for all yr great tutorials Bill .... is it too much to ask for another? my fav,s are "Dixie" (Land of Cotton), "Battle of New Orleans" and the "Battle Hymn of the Republic".....god bless you, rgds frm Germany
Nice video. Been playing pretty much just like this for years. Do you have a up-the-neck break for this?
Have you a tutorial for Jimmy Brown the newsboy on banjo. lovely tune.
Please do an Arkansas Traveler tutorial!!!!
Can you do country road take me home?
Hello! Do you take requests!? Would you be interested in Ralph Stanley and Ralph Stanley II’s arrangement of “a little at a time”?
