Since its importation to the US by African Slaves and the inception of an “American version” by Euro-American musicians during the 19th century, the five-string banjo became « America’s instrument » ; and if its controvesial history covers all the aspects of the American musical life, it also reflects its social and political context. Anyone interested in playing the banjo, or involved in doing historical or musical research on the instrument, will be confronted by the huge amount of documentation publised on the subject. The numerous references listed in <em>A Five-String Banjo Sourcebook</em>, try to cover all facets of the instrument, from the banjo manufacturers and workshops to the stage... We hope that these pages will help the users of this compilation to understand all the subtelties of a fascinating musical instrument.  40uhttps://www.editions-harmattan.fr/catalogue/couv/9782336457147r.jpg2Image de couverture40uhttps://www.harmatheque.com/downloadebook/97823364571472Télécharger le livre au format PDF40uhttps://www.harmatheque.com/readebook/97823364571472Lire ce livre en ligne
