We'll play Spring again next week to give you a chance to enjoy playing this beautiful piece, and to encourage Spring to come along. Remember to try to get a warm full and joyful tone while playing this. Make it sound like Spring!
We move along into another very familiar (thanks to Masterpiece Theater) classical piece. Remember to practice the shift up the neck on measure 5 and use the fingering that is written there. Then practice measures 4, and 5 together, and then add measure 6. Also, before practicing the whole piece, practice measure 2 (all those 8th notes). The slow recording for this is on your Resource page.
Also on your Resource Page is a recording of the swing strum and the chords for Sweet Sue. A copy of this is on the Resource page
Have fun with Sweet Sue, practicing the chords, the strum and playing the notes, using both tabs and notation.
Events:
Bellingham Ukulele Orchestra will present it's 4th annual concert (Just For Fun) on May 21 at the Heiner Theater at Whatcom Community College. Tickets are $10.00 and can be purchased at Brown Paper Tickets or from ME in April. We will have special guests and we put on a good show so don't miss it.
