Tom Briggs' Jig
Просмотров 12916 часов назад
This was written by Dan Emmett, and it is referring to Tom Briggs, the great banjoist of the mid 19th Century. This manuscript is a copy of his own (Emmett) hand. My arrangement is the same, except for dropping the second part an octave. It was originally a fiddle piece.
Spanish Gallopade and Variations

Originally found in the Briggs' Banjo Instructor of 1855 with only a theme and half of one variation, this version completes the piece in what is hopefully representative of how it may have been done in that particular era.

This song was written by Timothy Twiss, Lisa Wolf and Kathleen Moore c.1990 in Ann Arbor Michigan as part of a collective project we called MONTAGE. Other band members were Steve Osburn and Aron Kaufman.
Starting with the drop thumb feels unnatural.
W music reccomended. Jolly good show!
Also: flushing; blushing; running of the mouth; high stool; seat cramps; delayed borborygmus, and shortness of pants... ;-)
What a unique looking banjo.
For a second, it had a similar beat to Old Zip Coon
I agree, referencing the second half
💯
banger🔥
thank you, sir
Good Stuff!Thanks for posting!
That was wonderful. Thank you for sharing thar music and instrument.
LOVELY JUST LOVELY DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOB
Lmao…stop!!
That's a Bell
Beautiful!
Hey Tim, who made this banjo?
Great job!
I have several on my website www.timtwiss.com
Would you post some tutorials? I just finished building a fretless banjo and now I have to learn to play the stupid thing and I'm having a hard time finding good fretless tutorials
Nice. Glad to see more content coming from you. Awesome
This sone was written by Stephen Foster. Who was Buckley?
After just posting it, I listened to it and thought " dang it, why didn't I just stop after I did that last bridge. I should have skipped the walk around. Oh well. It was a spontaneous decision, cuz the form can be a bit cut and paste.
Love you guys Wish you could find venues just a little further south.
Very nice, Tim, "Jenny Get Yer Hoecake Done" is a favorite of mine, I know most of the words.
Nice. I like the “dance” part at the end
Typically referred to as a "walk around".
Thank you
I like it as an Etude.
Thanks
These both sound the same ruclips.net/video/WC14DB64_6c/видео.htmlsi=mMPCSixRecyYZt-n
I've never heard anything like that before.
Beautiful. Inspired me to seek out the tab for this and learned to play it between that and watching you, very happy.
just saw this, an absolute amazing song folks
Nice tunes, Timm, I recognize the songs; great old early American music. I like "O Lud Gals," too, but not so appropriate in a church.
It could have been worse...haha
Sounds very similar to the Callowhill Jig.
I love your music man, I've been following your stuff since I found this video, keep it up!!
auld zip coon is a learned scholar !
Which banjo is this and are they gut strings? Boucher style banjo?
Boucher. This is actually played on a Harrell with synthetic head and strings
Cher
You ROCK!
BOB!!!!!
How many parts to Koromanti are there? I didn't even know there were more than one.
Only three I know of
Nice song and pictures, Tim; the tempo increasing during the song seems to suggest the progression from sunrise, and those pausing to admire it, to the day getting underway as the sun climbs higher.
You are right!
Awesome photos and music.. Thanks
Who else is here after watching American Greatest Hits by Year, 1840-2013? "Whar Did You Cum From?" was the first song in that video. ruclips.net/video/1T9VvaKNW28/видео.html

I listen to your Spotify albums on fretless banjo very frequently, keep it up.
Sweet
Excellent song. Congratulations. From Greece.
I have J.K.Buckley’s banjo

On 3/4 time playback 1st song sounds Baroque
You know I sort of thought so too. That's kind of what attracted me to that sort of approach.
