Alec's portion is intended as a guide for the clawhammer or frailing banjo player with someprevious experience in this style. He stresses the fact that this style of music can be fully learned only from within the oral tradition in which it grew.

Alec recommends that '...anyone wanting to get this playing right should find someone in your area who plays and have him/her teach you. Listen to it watch it and make it your own.' InSection Two Lisa Schmits presents an extensive collection of 163 jigs reels polkas hornpipes strathspeys waltzes and songs from Ireland Scotland the Shetland Islands Cape Breton New England and Southern Appalachia forbanjo solo.
