Thank you, Lisa! Yeppp, I’ve only been playing for a couple of months, but I plan to keep playing for the rest of my life! & Thank you so much for the advice. I will definitely try to look for that youtube video.
Great job Gahanby and Hafeez3115! I really like both of your playing. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much for all the encouragement everyone! I really love this community. I’m posting my video below. I do not wish to win anything – I’m just submitting for fun! But I hope that Andrew can give me some helpful feedback. I also have a couple of questions for anyone!
I’m a beginner (playing only for the past couple of months now).
1. In “Daydreaming” how do I make the strumming part feel and sound more natural?
2. I know I hold the ukulele angled upwards a bit… which looks wrong… but when I hold it a little more straight like a guitar it slides off my lap & also eventually starts to hurt the muscles in the upper middle part of my left shoulder blade. Is it okay to hold my ukulele more upright if it helps me deal with it not falling away? Or is it weird and I should really re-train myself to hold it differently?Thank you so much in advance! I hope you’re all having a nice weekend.
I’m so impressed by everyone’s playing! Awesome job to everyone who has posted!! Really, really great work guys. It makes me very nervous to upload a video … I am definitely not at any of your level! Haha.
Thank you so much for the kind words, Kmelton and Awesomestrings. You guys did an AMAZING job and I can’t wait to see what you will play next!!! I really, really loved both of your videos, and I’m truly inspired by both of you.
You’re totally right – this is really about having fun and learning. More than anything, I’m just so grateful that this kind of resource exists. Thank you again for being so supportive :’) and again, really great job playing!!
Hi! In your opinion, what are the best picking exercises for a “beginner” ukulele player? I want to improve, but I’m not sure where to begin.
Hi guys! Here’s my entry for the Populele! I’m a SUPER, SUPER beginner. I just bought this instrument about two weeks ago… but I’m having so much fun with it and I can’t wait to learn more! I really love all of your videos. Keep up the great work everyone! Rock Class 101 is the best!
Awesome question! The first ukulele artist who truly inspired me to play, practice, and learn was Corey Fujimoto. He’s always been one of my greatest inspirations.
Hi Andrew!
Thank you so much for the quick reply! I will definitely check out Katie’s Youtube channel. I’ve been practicing “Chopsticks” a lot lately, and hope to join the competition. I’m still a beginner though, so hopefully I won’t embarrass myself too much.
Do you think it’s possible to play the song “Manifesto” by Victor Jara on the Ukulele? It’s so beautiful on the guitar, and that’s another song I hope I can play someday.
Thanks again!
From, Hannah
