BANJO LESSONS ON AUDIO CD

These lessons by Pat Terry, Jr. are only available for tenor banjo There are three different lesson packages, Beginners, Intermediate, & Advanced. Each package is comprised of a 60-minute CD and music booklet.

Keep in mind that each package would actually take the place of several individual lessons, while you learn at your own pace, and at your own convenience. You can play back parts that you need more work on and use the backup music provided on the CD to practice with. The incorporated fret diagram pages allow you to play the banjo with or without reading music. Each lesson package leads into the next.
