Description
The fun class will be repertoire based and will focus on how to play songs from the iconic and influential musical era known as The British Rock Invasion. And while the emphasis will be on songs by the era’s main musical catalysts: The Beatles and The Rolling Stones, you’ll also learn well known tunes from other notable British bands such as The Dave Clark Five, The Yardbirds, The Hollies, The Zombies and others. There’ll be a mix of simple as well as somewhat challenging songs to learn, but nothing beyond the skill level of an evolving beginner or early intermediate level uke player. Pre-requisite: An introduction to ukulele class such as Yes You Can Play The Ukulele Part 1 or similar beginner level class, is suggested. But at the very least, you’ll need to know at least 6 basic chords (major, minor, 7th) and be able to transition among them. Please bring your soprano, concert, or tenor ukulele (no baritone ukes, please, as they're tuned much differently) a guitar or ukulele pick and a ukulele capo (which can be purchased online or at local music stores for around $15).
