The ukulele is a fairly versatile instrument and is a member of the guitar family of instruments. The ukulele instrument is easier to play than the acoustic guitar because it has less strings, a shorter and narrower fingerboard, and fewer notes and chords that can be played on it. The strings do not have as much tension on them as the acoustic guitar. It is similar to the classical guitar with nylon strings and less tension on the strings. A player will have an easier time pressing the strings down to play the notes and chords because of this. You can play single note melodies, or solos done with double notes, rhythms with chords, or chords with melody (chord solos).
The ukuleles comes in four basic sizes. From smallest to largest they are soprano, concert, tenor, and baritone. The tone and volume of sound from the instrument varies with the size and construction. The baritone ukulele has the lower sound and sounds closest to the classical guitar of the four types of ukuleles.
The interest in the ukulele declined after the 1960s until the late 1990s, when interest in the instrument increased again. Manufactures began increasing production of ukuleles again and a new generation of musicians took up the instrument. Several styles of music can sound nice on the ukulele. The musical styles listed next are music styles that I teach but are not all popular on all instruments.
The musical styles I teach are rock, blues, funk, R&B, rockabilly, jazz, classical, folk, country, bluegrass, reggae, gospel, Latin, Brazilian, metal, styles, Broadway, pop, and more!
demonstrated that they have the knowledge, ability, dexterity, and can play in time. Another prerequisite is that they have had the basic writing of music notation with us prior to the start of these jam/theory classes. The first level type class works with written music or riff type play in different styles. The more advanced classes are improvisation classes in blues, rock, jazz etc.
