Ukulele Workshop series with Jim Beloff at Wesleyan University
In the first of three classes, there will be an introduction to the basics of playing the ukulele: holding, tuning, strumming, and making chords. A dozen or so well-known songs will be played, along with learning new chords, strums, tips, and techniques along the way. The second class reinforces the techniques of the first with a new set of songs drawn from our Daily Ukulele songbooks. The final class takes skills to a new level. Another dozen or so well-known songs will be played while learning more chords, new fingerings, new strums, a picking pattern, reading ukulele tablature, transposing on the fly, and performance tips and techniques.
