Ukulele for Beginners: How to Play and Master the 'Uke' in No Time!

3.5/5 ( ratings)

Once the recorder was the first musical instrument that you learned to play at school, but these days the ukulele is becoming the most popular classroom choice. It’s cheap, light, easily portable, suitable for children’s small hands and can be used to play a surprisingly wide variety of songs and musical styles.

Ukulele for Beginners is a perfect introduction. From choosing which kind of ukulele to learn to how to hold the instrument, from learning the names of the different strings to playing first chords, from strumming patterns to finger-picking, and learning simple first songs such as Swing Low Sweet Chariot, The Water is Wide and Down by the Riverside, the book guides the new learner through all the necessary steps.

With clear diagrams, instructions and notation, a large variety of musical styles are covered. Special features focus on famous ukulele players, such as Brittni Paiva, James Hill and George Formby. Written by a professional player, Ukulele For Beginners is illustrated with colour photographs and illustrations of chord tabs, and is an excellent first book on this increasingly popular instrument.
