Brief Introduction
Ukulele 3: Keys, Chords and songsDescription
This course is a growing knowledge of playing the ukulele and in various keys. This course is valuable to be able to play any song you like in the chords that suit your voice or group playing. If you would like a chord chart to stick on the back of your ukulele for quick reminding, please ask. Stick it on with artist tape. It doesn't mark your instrument.
I have many one chord tutoring on this course as well. F, C, C7, Cmaj, Am, A7. These are easy to teach your young children how to play a song while strumming up and down or just down strokes. Have fun. You can become a tutor too. Keep it simple and try new strumming patterns.
It is to increase the knowledge of my students who have achieved Ukulele 2 and includes more songs and places to find many more. The same materials are needed for playing. Maybe a printer to download songs and play. The course can be run through quickly then taken in bites at a time.
The course is structured in the various keys of music. A, C, D, F, G. The chord of E is sometimes quite difficult for some players. The chord of Bb is easier to manage if the ukulele is held up and slightly slanted toward you so the fingers are pointing downward to achieve the first finger pressing on the two bottom strings together. These keys of music which are groups of 3-6 such as C Dm Em F G7 Am are taught. Most use only up to 5. to transpose a song is something we will learn at another stage. More lessons are going up in different keys in the next months.
