This 80 minute video is recommended for intermediate level students. This style of picking has many names like "Clawhammer". but basically is a 19th century down-stroking style. It is highly recommended that students become familiar with Dwight's sense of rhythm before trying to work on tunes. As for the tunes themselves, they are guaranteed to be different from the sources, and they will be a little different each time Dwight plays them. This is why so much time must be spent learning the tradition behind the old music. By the way, the term "model" refers to type of musical scale used which is seldom heard today but was popular in the past centuries. This music is resonated with the people and reflected their deeper thoughts. It is not aerobic square dance music; please respect it by not playing it that way.|
