Ukulele
Magic is the perfect
tutor for children and
for teachers. Rock to
ragtime, bluegrass to
swing, tango, calypso and
the blues - they're all
here in instantly
accessible songs to play
straight away ~ whether
solo, withfriends, or
with the whole class.
Fully supported by video
tutorials and audio
performances and
backings.
The
pupil's edition, BOOK CD,
contains full audio
performance and backing
support and website video
tutorials, makingit ideal
for individual practice.
The 25 pieces carefully
progress from playing
open strings (eg
Stringalong Rag) to songs
with one chord (Shortnin
bread, A minor miracle, F
major march) to two
chords (Baboushka, Tab
tango,Calypsostrum) and
finally three chords (In
South Africa, Playing the
blues).
Finger-picking and
strumming styles are all
introduced step by step
in pieces which are fun
and stylistic. This is a
thoroughly musical
introduction toan
immensely popular
instrument, opening the
way to independent
music-making for
all.
