Banjo Hangout Newest 100 Unknown/None Chosen Songs

I recorded and mixed 3 banjo tracks to create this banjo version of 'In the Cave'. This piece of music was written by the Finnish band Pepe Deluxe specifically to be played on the Great Stalacpipe Organ in the Luray Caverns in Virginia - (a recording of that is available on YouTube). While not a great piece of music, it is at once haunting and alluring. The structure of the piece is simple: a continuous 3 note arpeggio (adagio sostenuto), very similar to that found in Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, with a simple melody and sparse base line. It is in A minor and has a 12/8-time signature. Enjoy.

This is a rendition according the settings in John Burke's "Old Time Fiddle Tunes for Banjo". He claims that the last part is a harmony part to the other ones. I tried that out.

I played my banjo along with a good fiddler in our local old time group (along with a good guitar player) and really like this tune. I've since learned to play it, up to speed, on my fiddle.
