Luke Ward - New Bouzouki Lesson - Princess Royal

I have already introduced Luke Ward's lessons here. Today, Luke has published a new lesson. This time, it's about playing melodies. He teaches us the reel Princess Royal. A beautiful melody. He shows us how to play with the capo on the 7th fret. This has the advantage that we can reach the high notes better without having to change position. If you play an instrument in GDAE tuning, you can play the top three strings just like on a mandolin or banjo.

Here's the link to the lesson. 

Of course you have to be a member to watch the lesson.

Here's the version from the album by Luke Ward and Aaron O'Hagan
