  • Description English The southern US state of Tennessee is known as the home of American country music. The world-famous Grand Ole Opry stage there has launched the careers of many of country’s top stars. One feature of most country music is the sound of the banjo. VOA's Lesia Bakalets talks to two banjo makers from Tennessee about the history of the instrument – an offshoot of an African import - and the unique way each one is made.
