Designed for players ready to transition beyond basic chords and simple melodies, this book introduces richer fingerstyle techniques, dynamic arrangements, and engaging musical challenges.
Anne Ku's background in composition and pedagogy, as well as her thorough understanding of the 'ukulele, shine in these carefully crafted pieces. They are not only musically delightful, but also methodical in their approach to learning this joyful instrument.- Daniel Ho, Six-time GRAMMY Award Winner This volume provides structured, step-by-step guidance to help you build confidence, improve finger independence, and expand your musical repertoire. Featuring stunning watercolor illustrations by Hannah Benoit, this book combines clear pedagogy with an enjoyable, artistic learning experience. What You Will Learn & Explore:
