Eugene--
Speaking of classical banjo, have you heard B�la Flek's
album "Perpetual Motion"? He does a remarkable performance on banjo of Bach,
Scarlatti, Debussy, Beethoven and more.

I love this weird stuff. There was a thriving ca. 1900 "classical" camp of
banjo playing, especially in the US, UK, and to some extent, Italy. If the
gut-strung but recently-fretted banjo and its repertoire intrigue, I'd
recommend Douglas Back's _The_Banjo_Goes_Highbrow_ and
_The_Big_Trio_Reprise_ on Belmando Records <http://www.belmando.com/>.
