Softly and Tenderly
intermediate banjo
This lesson is for members
This classic hymn has one of my favorite melodies, and fits an expressive banjo solo quite well! Though it's slow, it requires some quick moves to keep it clean & make it sound pretty!

Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

Try measure 3 on its own at half tempo, and keep your right hand rolling even when the left hand is behind. The right hand is the metronome.

There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.
