Really nice tune, Marc!...maybe a little request...is there any chance that you can tape the songs with a little bit of volume? (my apologies if I sounded mean)...this, because some times it´s hard to heard you some parts, and I really don´t want to miss them :(

Hi Marc.   Many thanks for letting us listen to your rendition of Broadway Promenade.     I really enjoyed it's banjoey sound.

Great tune and well played..can you let us know where to find the dots?

Ellis is very often overlooked as a composer for the banjo because of his great output of 'potboilers' but he knew how to capture the characteristic sound of the banjo in pieces such as this. A really well played version of this tune which every banjoist should play.

merci / Thx

Yes ; i have sometimes Pbs with the sound ' level ( copy & paste from BHO ) :

Thanks to all the members who leaved a comment or  " a like " on my videos ; these are almost  in  classic banjo ' style .

I use the zoom  Q3 ( regular not HQ ) for the later videos ; it 's  a very good  recorder for the youtube ' videos but the input control gain is  .........  de la merde  ( s*** ? )

In fact , the Zoom ' engineer would  have had an economy  ; he didn 't added an adjustable potentiometer on the Q3  ; he added only a 3 positions ' button

high gain  :  our favorite instrument overload it  if you  're  too close  ... you make a video , you have to be close

auto matic : the worse : go from high to low input gain automaticly ; your video will be good for the garbage..

low gain : the only you can use ; but the volume  must be uncreased with a software

i have increased the volume not enough on some of my videos ; sorry

Steve , i guess  Ian is gonna post the dots in the adequate section

For those who would like to try this piece. Steve Harrison has produced a score for 1st banjo and I have posted this along with the original score, and piano accompaniment, to the MUSIC LIBRARY.
