Thank you so much! 🤩

Beautiful melody isn't it? Thank you for listening! I'm glad you enjoy it. :)

Thank you so much! Any requests for my next one?

They were originally drawn by Nelly Littlehale Umbstaetter Murphy. She drew covers for a magazine called The Black Cat, one of the first magazines dedicated to short fiction. The cat and rabbit appeared on the March 1896 issue. Most of the covers and full issues are available on archive.org.

I'm glad you enjoy it! Thanks for stopping by!

Good question. In my mind it was a fictional ancestor of Elon. I looked it up. Wikipedia says: The dance was first published in 1786.  The name derives from the House of Monymusk, a baronial estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The estate's name came from the Gaelic moine mus(g)ach, meaning "nasty, filthy bog". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Money_Musk Kinda neat. We both learned something new today. Thanks for commenting!

@@KylesSheetMusicShop I'm just going to keep thinking it's smelly money, if you don't mind. In my 20s I bought a $3800 Volvo with a large stack of $20 bills and when I sat down with the seller to count it he said, "I hope the bank doesn't mind that all this money reeks of weed." And I said, "oh, they don't care, all my money smells like that and they still love it." 😉

The dude abides.

You're welcome! Enjoy!

Good question. All of my plectrum guitar tabs are for standard six string tuning. They did make 4-string plectrum guitars and they're quite rare. Tenor guitars are rare enough, but those are a bit shorter in scale. I've never seen any music specifically written or arranged for 4-string plectrum guitars, but you could just play any plectrum banjo tune with the tuning you mentioned. Here's a good example of one of those guitars: th-cam.com/video/KZ6Z-ZOqjLI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=yYLiCsVeQL0vtK0Q

Thanks for the comment! I originally arranged this for a professional trio several years ago. I'll keep your ideas in mind if I need to make an easier version one day. Here's the debut performance: th-cam.com/video/evQSDf0KVzk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=5iOaoZnZ0GbIwWqY

Professional bassoonist here: the bassoon part is fine, E's F's and G's are not high, all of my private middle school and high school students can play up there just fine

@@OneManBassoonBand I have some questions. Did your private students, when you took them on, knew how to play those notes? If not how long did it take for them to learn? Also I would like to add that private students always advance faster than self taught or public students. When I made the original comment about how high the bassoon notes are, I was assuming that the target audience was lower level players. Players that are beginning their musical journey. Players that are self taught or in public education. I did not knew at the time that this piece was made for professionals

@@OneManBassoonBand Thank you for your input! I appreciate it :)

i think it’s supposed to be like that. usually bass is in the background. take the first piece for example. it’s like a sandwich. the middle is all the ingredients. all the juicy stuff. the top is the bread, holding the piece together. and the bassoon is the condiments. it just makes the sandwich better and have more flavor. i’m saying this as a trombone player.

@@izzie_WHY I understand and maybe it is my playing device but the basson is so quiet for me that it can't do its job right. I agree that it is important to for the bass is to not overpower the piece. I am a trumpet player and a baritone singer :)

​@@izzie_WHYHi Bassoonist here. Bass and melody are the most important when it comes to music. Using your sandwich analog It is the bread. It is actually the harmony that is all of the stuff inside of a sandwich. Also I would like to add if you take off the top bread or the melody off you still get something that you can hold. Like toast and jam. I also agree that that bassoon is too quiet. It doesn't support the rest of the ensemble, like the bottom bun of a really good burger.

@matedrong Do you mean the sound quality of the playback or in the arrangement itself? I'm using the new sounds in MuseScore 4 for this for the first time and I'm not 100% happy with them. The instruments all sound nice on their own but don't really blend too well in situations like this, imo. If you're talking about the arrangement, in live settings the bassoon is quite audible I think. Here's the debut performance of this arrangement: th-cam.com/video/evQSDf0KVzk/w-d-xo.htmlsi=8QWxcVij5HULYGCb

@@KylesSheetMusicShop I mainly mean the playback, what I can see from the sheet music the arrangement is good/fine. I used musescore as well and found hard to find a good overall balance of instrument volumes. (In real play the musicians and the conductor can fine tune the piece sounding) I hope you can understand my broken english xd. (It is not my first language)

I think you're right. This is the decade when plectrum banjo really started to spread.

I'm glad my video was here to help solve the mystery! :) Have you tried it out on your banjo yet?

@@KylesSheetMusicShop Yeah this video helped a lot. I got the basic melody down pretty quickly and now I'm working out how to play it with style.

Nice! I'd love to hear your version. Tag me if you post a video!

Hey thanks! I appreciate it! ^_^

Nice. I wonder if some of his tunes that were published in The Cadenza like this were exclusively available there? He's certainly one of the most prolific banjo composers of his time.

Does anyone know the name of that woodwind type instrument?

@@miguelramos48017 I'm using the clarinet sound from MuseScore for the melody of this one. 🌟

Hi! I'm doing well, how are you? I appreciate you stopping by. This is one of my favorite banjo tunes of all time! :)

Thanks! It's my favorite tune this month! Are there any other tunes in D tuning you recommend? I'm really enjoying the sound of it. Cheers!

Yeah this one has some really nice chords! I enjoy this one a lot. Thanks for commenting. Cheers!

Yay! It's such a great book. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it. Make sure you join the banjo club so you'll have plenty to play when you get your banjo. I'd be happy to help you pick one out too. Cheers! kylegrayyoung.gumroad.com/l/kylesbanjoclub

I'm so glad to hear that! Did you download the free ebook?

yes i did! and i’ve learned this one, hoping to share soon!

@andyhuynh7 Yeah he arranged quite a few in the 20s and 30s when he was the editor of the magazine. I have several available in my ebook: kylegrayyoung.gumroad.com/l/BMGPlectrumGuitar

This is the hardest banjo tune I've transcribed! :D

Thank you so much for commenting! I'm glad you found my arrangement. Cheers from snowy Minnesota. :)

Thanks! And thanks for being my first subscriber! :D
