- Gottschalk's The Banjo on YouTube
- Here is a video I posted on YouTube in which I play my arrangement of Louis Moreau Gottschalk's "The Banjo" (1854) on the gourd banjo.
- Les Barricade Mystérieuses on YouTube
- People have asked about my performance of Couperin's "Les Barricades Mystérieuses" from my first Flying Fish record, and you can download the notation/tablature for it in "downloads," above. I don't know if I'll record it again, but I know the old Flying Fish stuff will never be re-released. So maybe I will; I play it at most of my performances because I always have loved that piece and it's fun to do. Anyhow, my friend Thomas Arthur recorded a video of me playing it on the fretless gourd banjo, right after I started playing it without frets, and I posted it on YouTube. If you are figuring it out, this video might help.
