Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Banjo Tab PDF + MP3
Style: Scruggs-style/Tom Adams-style 3-finger banjo playingKey of G
G Tuning, gDGBD
51 measures
Details: The tab contains 3 banjo breaks. The melody is plainly evident in the 1st Break while in the 2nd Break, variations on the C chord and in the 4th line are present. The 3rd Break takes more liberties with the melody throughout all 4 lines, making this a good example of a break that would appear near the end of the piece once the melody had been firmly established by the preceding instrumentalists and singers.
Tom demonstrates all 3 breaks on the MP3.
