marianneParticipantHappy new year all!
Here is my rendition of the (beautiful) Fingerpicking Etude No.6:
I am happy with it in the sense that it’s been a busy month for me so I only had 2 days to learn it and an extra day to practice it in total! Sorry for the couple rougher spots.
I also had to adapt it to work on my baritone with a lower G, so I changed a couple spots where possible in terms of fingering/strings to hit.
@Andrew, I found it also easier to place the first finger under the second finger for the first chord of measures 3 and 7 following that by a slide of the first finger down by half for the second chord (rather than that painful bar). Hope that’s ok!December 17, 2022 at 3:38 pm in reply to: Participate in the December 2022 Member Challenge – WIN $6,000 Kanile’a #55150
marianneParticipantHappy Holidays to all of you!
Here’s God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen! Looked easier than I thought.
Happy 2023!
marianneParticipantHi all!
I would like to suggest ‘Evocacion, by Jose Luis Merlin’. A beautiful classical piece that could sound wonderful on the baritone 🙂-

marianneParticipantHere 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…

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

marianneParticipantThanks @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!August 12, 2022 at 9:09 am in reply to: Participate in the August 2022 Member Challenge: WIN Bamboo Ukulele! #53134
marianneParticipantAs 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:

marianneParticipant@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!May 24, 2022 at 9:02 am in reply to: Participate in the May 2022 Member Challenge – WIN $6,000 Kanile’a Ukulele #51999May 22, 2022 at 4:39 pm in reply to: Participate in the May 2022 Member Challenge – WIN $6,000 Kanile’a Ukulele #51991May 21, 2022 at 2:57 pm in reply to: Participate in the May 2022 Member Challenge – WIN $6,000 Kanile’a Ukulele #51985
marianneParticipantHi 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!!
