This is an original piece of music. It is played with "period" instruments (fretless banjo, guitar, jaw bone, tambo ) and written in what I consider to be an older style. I'm certain there are some modern twists in it, but I hope the overall effect is to pay homage to an exciting earlier time in our musical heritage...the mid 19th Century. As was traditional then, a real person was named for a piece...this one being Greg Adams - scholar, freind, and banjoist extrordinare. I know he likes the Japanese Grand march, so this was a toss in that direction.

The combination of the unmistakable sound from these banjo's and striking the notes just so as that style lends itself to is what sets this music apart from the other banjo styles that people find favor with.
