Extending beyond beginner level skill, this course focuses on playing in an ensemble. Explore the keys of C and F, develop music reading skills, and learn to play in a group. Instruction will work with arrangements that are geared to a variety of beyond-beginner skill levels to accommodate a range of experiences and interests. Expand your vocabulary of chords and strumming patterns, improve melody and harmony playing, and play effectively in a musical ensemble. Instruction will work in C6 tuning, using the Ukulele in the Classroom series by James Hill and Chalmers Doane, as well as supplemental material provided by the instructor. A ukulele strung with a low G string is recommended. You are required to bring your soprano, concert, or tenor ukulele. Baritone ukuleles cannot be accommodated.
