I recorded a bit of banjo practice today on my iphone. This is a tune called Big Sciota, except when it’s called Big Scioty, or Big Scioto. Whatever you want to call it, the c is silent. This tune is named after a river in South and Central Ohio. Apparently at different times the river has had other names as well.

I’m playing clawhammer style on a Dogwood Banjo, tuned to standard A.
