Une jolie petite chanson connue dans le monde entier, que les enfants apprennent sur les genoux de leur maman, et facile a jouer au banjo! Quelques notes assez rapides, attention au doigté de la main droite. Une fois que vous y arrivez, vous pouvez accélérer. Les deux premières notes sur la troisième corde (de sol) sont jouées avec le pouce, et la troisième note sur la deuxième corde (de si) est jouée avec l’index.
A jaunty French tune played on the banjo. There are some quick notes in here. Watch closely for the right hand fingering – if you get this right you can play more quickly. The first two notes on the middle (g) string are picked with the thumb and the third note, the open b string is picked with the finger.
