Happy Holidays to all of you!

Here’s God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen! Looked easier than I thought.

Happy 2023!

Hi all!
I would like to suggest ‘Evocacion, by Jose Luis Merlin’. A beautiful classical piece that could sound wonderful on the baritone 🙂

Aw thank you @madz_about_uke!!

[marianne]

Thanks @Andrew! ☺️

Here is my submission of Misirlou!
Tremolo is a super tough technique and this is definitely advanced for me but had to take the challenge!! Hope I didn’t butcher it too much 🙂 sorry about the little hiccup at the very end…

Wonderful. Thanks!

@Andrew, what about for Misirlou or body surfing? Could you play on low G?
Thanks

[marianne]

Thanks @andrew! Haha yes you are right…! I should have given it another day before submitting but was too eager to do so. Had started learning it only 2 days ago 😂
Agreed the tone of that uke is gorgeous. I am finding it impossible to go back to the old one!

As I had already learnt and submitted Moon Waltz and The Explorer previously, decided to take on Fingerpicking Etude No.5.

What a gorgeous melancholic little tune Andrew. As always, wonderful melodies!

Here’s to you from Lebanon:

@nthibode, I echo what sir__anzalot said. I have no idea how you are able to sing at the same time as play this piece and effortlessly so. I tried and failed miserably 😂
This is not a simple chord structure/pattern that allows for natural singing accompaniment and it’s filled with syncopation and different time signatures…! Amazing. Dexterity galore!

Thank you so much @andrew!! 😀☺️

[marianne]

Thank you so much @gi_gi_! 😊😊

Hi everyone!
What a lovely selection for this month. I will be learning all of them as the arrangements are gorgeous. Thanks RC101 team!
Here is Blackbird. I am the one singing but without showing my face as I am too conscious when I sing and it makes me uncomfortable 😊 It’s a whole lot of fun to play!!

@Andrew, while I had learnt ans submitted the Theme from The Godfather, I couldn’t resist not taking a stab at The Explorer. Your composition is simply beautiful, and the runs are addicting…! Your brain is wired in a wonderful way! 😀 thank you!

I had to rush the learning as I am traveling (only put 3 days into it), so still not perfect and could go a little faster eventually but wanted to share.

The work you and the team do is absolutely inspiring and uplifting, especially when everything else around us is so grim. Proud to be a member.
