    Have you received much classical music training? If so, how has it influenced how you compose music.

    Thanks!

    Taimane, if you could pick absolutely anywhere to perform your ukulele, real or fictional, where would it be and why?

    Hi I started playing ukulele watching videos on youtube and searching tabs. Now I want to study something more methodical do you have any suggestion for books?

    Hi Taimane

    There is an ethereal quality to your composition and playing of, “Moon.” Additionally, your voice floats effortlessly over the melody. Did your vocal interpretation guide your playing, did you playing guide your singing, or was it more of a combination of both?

    Thanks!

    Hey, Taimane!
    What was the first song you played on ukulele? What was especially difficult for you?
    Thanks 🙂

    Taimane:
    I was introduced to your music by my daughter Mandy. She had lived in Hawaii for 6 years and met up with you a number of times both at her belly dance performances and also your concerts. While visiting her in the islands I picked up my first uku. Five or six ukes later I’m still at it. It’s a hobby for me as I’m not musically inclined. My question is (stage fright) how can I get more comfortable playing in front of my friends. Love your music style. You alway look like your having so mush fun on stage. Thanks Randy

    I love the way Taimane plays in such a free manner. I think the whole flamenco playing style goes really well with all the dancing she does on stage.
