@The_Bumble_Bard, I did a bit of looking through the Internet about straps for guitars and ukuleles and what might work best for females since we’re built differently from guys and often have trouble with holding stringed instruments securely and comfortably.

Based on what I found, I’ve double-strapped some of my ukes, attaching one strap from the headstock to the end of the body, and one from the bottom to the top of the body. I attach the two straps loosely together using bits of cord to prevent them tangling. I’ve found this arrangement works well for my Flight electric uke.

Hi,

This month I worked on Danny Boy. To get better into my range I used a capo. I made a few small changes to the accompaniment toward the end.

Congratulations, @johanna2509! That is a lovely choice. I have a Flight electric and really enjoy playing it. They make beautiful ukuleles.

Thanks @Andrew! It felt a lot better this time. My son helped me set up the mic on the uke.

Thanks, @Stephen! I’ve really enjoyed this challenge. As I age and gradually lose friends and relatives, this particular piece of music has increased meaning for me.

And here is the last recording of the Farewell to Music (Farewell!) this month. A bit smoother especially at the start and I’ve gotten in some dynamics.
