I’m not much of a singer but I put a capo on the second fret and juuuust about managed to limp through.

I knew that I would be short of time this month so I had to opt for one of the simpler arrangements. Here’s my attempt at the Minuet in G, which I’ve also added a few chords to, in order to fil it out a bit.

Well done everyone on all the awesome work this might. I’ve so enjoyed watching and listening to you all.

Here’s my attempt at the James Bond theme. Unfortunately, I ran out of time… and talent… and ability this month. Here’s recording four number million and seven; the one where I juuuust about got away with it.

Thank you so much @clempek I really enjoyed playing it too. 🙂

Well done everyone with your submissions this month. I’ve really enjoyed seeing and hearing you all.

Here’s my attempt at Matt’s lovely version of Moon River. I love how this simple arrangement still allows you to inject so much emotion into the beautiful melody. I’ve opted for an “unswung” rhythm, I’m afraid because I like the original so much. But I’ve still really enjoyed listening to all you “swingers” too! 😉

Thanks for sharing. That was such good fun and you should be really proud of it.

[simonalexander]

I loved that. Thank you.

Beautifully played. Thank you. I learnt this for the monthly challenge too and I’d forgotten all about. You’ve inspired me to polish it up again.

Hi @sebi75

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment. I’m really glad that you liked my performance. I had a lot of fun learning it.

I think you are right about the reverb. I will definitely reduce it on future recordings.

Thank you guys.

Willie, I used three point lighting and also put a light vignette around it “in post”. Hope that’s helpful.

Look forward to more of your lovely shares.

[simonalexander]

Well done! That’s a challenging piece and I really enjoyed your rendition. Thank you for sharing.

[simonalexander]

thank you Willie and Nathalie. I really enjoyed both of those so much.
I remember attempting a finger-style version of Georgia on guitar many years … ago and I failed miserably and haven’t been able to look it in the face since.#
But you’ve both really inspired me. Maybe it’s time I gave it another go.
Thank you both.

Hi Dirk. Thanks for your kind words. Henley-on-Thames is actually much closer to me than you imagined. It’s only fifteen kilometres away. My son want to college there.
Although I never met George Harrison myself, a pianist friend of mine knew him quite well. But I didn’t know that he was such a ukulele fan. Thanks for sharing that.
I completely agree with you though, ukulele is a total meditation for me too: a real blessing in these tricky times.
Great to hear from you.

[simonalexander]

Thank you both very much. I really enjoyed it.
