Beautifully played! The only thing I’d do diff is put more emphasis on the rit. at the end of bar and 8, as well as, the end of the song.
@andrew, I did not even realize there was supposed to be a ritando in bar 8! 🙂 I’ll definitely repost this one soon. Thanks for the tips!sounds pretty perfect to me! First take – amazing
Thanks! 😛 Usually it takes me many more takes to get something I don’t mind posting…
Not perfect, but this was my first take. If I have time, I’ll post an update later this month! Hopefully I can smooth some things out.
Thanks for watching!
There should be a ukulele anxiety thread where everyone can vent about their various struggles like these. 😉😅
As soon as the camera starts recording, my playing goes from hero to zero in short order! 🙂
It’s even worse if I have to play in front of people. I don’t do it enough to condition myself to the experience. I’m also way to hard on myself. I strive for perfection instead of having fun with it. Definitely something I need to work on more and more!!As for memorization, I will try and memorize any song I’m working on. Depending on my overall interest in the song, I may forget it in short order. But if I want to play it again in the future, it does not take me too long to get it back in the short term memory. Those that I play every day will stick around a lot longer. But if I stop playing them, I’ll forget them and have to polish them back up. I don’t have too large of a repertoire at the moment. That will build up over time I’m sure!
@katazumiri, both of your swan lake submissions are awesome! Great job!
@The_Bumble_Bard, thanks for the feedback! I’m not happy with the slight hesitations on chord changes in the “Melody B” section.. It’s something to work on! 🙂
For this one, I’d recommend practicing slower and focusing on transitioning between the A and B Melody (and B to A) without losing time.
For sure! 🙂 I’ll definitely post a revised one of this ML004 once I put a bit more time into it! Thanks for watching and the advice to improve. Much appreciated!
@rafaela, it sounds great to me! Nice playing!
@Andrew, please let know if this is better. 🙂
I agree.. my tempo did get a bit sloppy there. 😁 I’ll redo this one again before moving onto another mini lesson. 👍
