Another Early Ossman

Vess L. Ossman was America's fresh-faced lion of the banjo in 1896 when his arrangement of "Moonlight Dance", a lyrical but also rather stately piece, was published . At this time his repertoire was still rich in marches, mazurkas and overtures, so this piece fits.

Originally in A notation, the score is now transposed to C, with one approach to left hand positions added. I'm sure there are others, but however you approach them, the triplet runs up and down the neck at speed make this piece a challenge.

Have a listen to the score playback. PDFs for both dots and TAB are below.

Thanks to the ABF for preserving the A notation original.
