@bomarkt – Lovely performance Bo and great to see you back! TY so much for the donation 🙂

[Andrew]

@leb397 – Beautiful playing on both instruments Louisa! Thank you so much for the kind words and the donation! 🙂

[Andrew]

Thanks to everyone who tuned in! The replay will be released on January 3rd 🙂

[Andrew]

@leslieb – Very beautifully played, Leslie! For the double stops, try strumming through them a bit faster so they don’t sound as arpeggiated. Thank you so much for the kind words; we really appreciate it!

@lucauka – That was awesome, Luca! Great playing this month! My only suggestion is to memorize the piece so you can focus 100% on your playing.

@clempek – Bravo, Clem! That was fantastic! I’m going to feature your performance in our newsletter this week. 🙂

[Andrew]

@planetfink – Sounds great on bari, Kathy! I love the dynamics in your performance, starting strong and ending so softly. Wonderful pacing and feel throughout!

[Andrew]

@willw18 – Really nicely played Will! Great feel throughout! Well done 👏

@anyon1 – Beautifully played Adriana! TY so much for the donation. When you get a chance, can you email me the amount so that I can keep our tally up to date 🙂

[Andrew]

@morrieuke1 – Great playing, as always, Michael and I like the percussive touch you added! Thank you so much for the donation! When you get a chance, can you add that tune to our request list?

@misterbones – That was awesome Michael! I already know @The_Bumble_Bard’s gonna love it! 🙂

TY so much for the donation!

@leb397 – You said:

I’ve changed the single open “c”/G string to the E string 3rd fret

The open 3rd string can remain as is. The open 4th string is the only one that needs to be moved to the 3rd fret on string 2.

Question is the Am7 in the 5th bar doesn’t sound quite right open on c&g. Do you play the cords with open g&c as written for low G?

Try ignoring string 4. That might make it sound better to your ear.

[Andrew]

@The_Bumble_Bard – Beautiful adaptation Rachael! Well written and played! Thank you so much for the donation! I’m very thankful to have you here with us. I really appreciate your positive comments for our members and teachers 🙂

@ukefinlandgirl – Beautifully played! One thing I’d suggest working on is increasing sustain. I noticed that you’re lifting your fretting fingers before the note’s full duration. Try keeping them held down for the entire length of each note. I’d also recommend watching this lesson. It goes into more detail about this concept.

@deadbuggy – Beautifully played Sara! Great feel and pacing! TY so much for the kind words, I really appreciate it!

[Andrew]

@maryjanew – Sounding awesome already MJ!

@emiliano – A beautiful adaptation Emiliano! Well done and played!

[Andrew]

That’s awesome! Thank you so much for your generosity. Have a fun and safe and trip! 🙂

[Andrew]

MJ, Marianne’s playing it on baritone. It’s pretty easy to adapt to bari or low G. All you have to do is move the open 4th string notes to the 3rd fret on string 2.

[Andrew]

Yes, Evan’s doing Rockin’ as a full band arrangement 🙂

Can’t wait to hear the uke! Looking forward to it! And def share a performance of your arrangements, that would be fun to listen to!

[Andrew]

Wow, Marianne! What a beautiful performance to kick off our December challenge. And TY so much for your generosity! It’s truly appreciated 🙂

[Andrew]
