Bouvre Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 So far, I gave her the rundown on three-chord progressions, and strumming patterns. To keep her entertained and challenged though, I have her learning some songs. We just touched on Ingrid Michaelson's "You And I" and Beirut's "East Harlem." Any recommendations for songs that would be good/simple for a beginner ukulele player? In addition, is there anything new in y'all's domestic routine that's helping keep you sane? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katt_goddess Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 <.< >.> 'Classical Gas' Actually you can play something like 'Ode to Joy' fairly easily on a beginner uke. Bonus is most people know what that is so they can figure out the speed by ear and they feel really good about it because it's a classical song that's not 'Tip toe Through the Tulips' . I'm taking this time to make as many pins as I can for the Con in the fall. I'm hoping to get as many done as I have the parts for and having all the other bits prepped for when stores are open and I have a job again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ode to Joy isn't a bad idea since she's also just beginning to understand major scale structure. and I'd love to see the pins some time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
