Jean-Marie Redon a eu l’immense plaisir de faire remettre à neuf un très vieux banjo oldtime (19e siècle) par David Prat. Ce fut l’occasion de rencontrer de ce talentueux luthier espagnol et de découvrir ses magnifiques instruments.
David a commencé à fabriquer des instruments en 1995. Les deux premiers étaient des Mountain Dulcimers, puis il a fait des ukulélés, des banjos-mandolines. Autodidacte, il a parfait son savoir-faire en voyageant aux États-Unis et en y rencontrant des luthiers. En 2008, il a commencé à commercialiser ses instruments sous le nom Prat Instruments. Il fait principalement des banjos oldtime, des banjos bluegrass, des banjos ténor, des dulcimers, des banjolélés.
Son but est de fabriquer des instruments à l’ancienne et qui soient abordables, qui soient beaux et qui sonnent bien. David est lui-même musicien et joue du banjo oldtime et du dulcimer.
La plupart de ses clients sont des musiciens originaires du Royaume Uni, du Nord de l’Europe et des États-Unis. Quelques professionnels qui jouent un Prat Instrument: Brad Leftwich, Joel Bruna (Dead Bronco), Jacobo ( LA MODA), Davis McLaughlin ( Johnson Mountain Boys), Seppo Sillanpää.
C’est la 3e année que l’association AL RAS BLUEGRASS AND OLD TIME MUSIC organise un stage de musique sur un weekend à Barcelone, le Barcelona Bluegrass Camp. De nombreux ateliers sont proposés et tous les niveaux sont acceptés. Deux classes de banjo pour les banjoïstes!
Voici le liste des professeurs ainsi que le planning du stage.

En 2015, Gérard DE SMAELE a publié un riche ouvrage en français permettant de comprendre l’histoire du banjo 5 cordes, BANJO ATTITUDES -Le banjo à cinq cordes : son histoire générale, sa documentation.
Cette année, il propose A Five-String Banjo Sourcebook, une œuvre complémentaire en anglais, qui présente avec exhaustivité les ressources de documentation ayant trait au banjo (livres, enregistrements, films, banjoïstes, luthiers, etc.) Cette compilation est incontournable pour quiconque s’intéresse vraiment à cet instrument fascinant.
Voici l’élogieuse présentation d’Art Rosenbaum:
« The American 5-string banjo is many things: a physical object of material culture with roots back to Africa and farther east, and a complex and ongoing development in North America; an equally complex musical culture ranging through vernacular, classical, and popular musical idioms and histories; and connections to social, cultural, and artistic networks. One volume cannot encompass all this, but Gérard De Smaele’s earlier work in French, « Banjo Attitudes », comes close. In the meantime we are lucky to have in hand De Smaele’s exhaustive compendium of history, research. and commentary on the banjo that will inform and nourish inquiry and interest. »
(Art Rosenbaum, 2018.)
Cette année encore, Lluis Gomez sera le professeur de banjo pour le 33e Stage International de Musique Acoustique de Virton. Les inscriptions ouvrent le 01.01.2018 à 00.00. N’attendez pas pour vous inscrire, car les amateurs de ce stage d’une excellente qualité sont nombreux. En effet, plusieurs ateliers instrumentaux et vocaux sont proposés et tous animés par des musiciens et professeurs reconnus. Il y a aussi un atelier rythme et des ateliers interclasses où les stagiaires pratiquent la musique en groupe. Sans parler des concerts et jam sessions. En bref, c’est une semaine d’immersion musicale dans la joie et la bonne humeur.
