More About this Book

YOU WANT CHORD-SOLO PLAYING TO BE AS UNCOMPLICATED AS POSSIBLE.

MOST UKULELE PLAYERS ARE STRUMMERS--ACCOMPANYING THEIR OWN SINGING. THE MORE ADVANCED PLAYERS, NOT CONTENT TO JUST STRUM, OR NOT FEELING INCLINED TO SING, BECOME HOOKED ON CHORD-SOLO PLAYING.

THE TRANSITION FROM STRUMMING TO PLAYING CHORD-SOLOS IS CHALLENGING FOR MOST UKE PLAYERS, BECAUSE IT IS DIFFICULT TO KNOW HOW AND WHERE TO BEGIN -- WHERE TO FIND THE UNCOMPLICATED STEPS -- AND THE SOLO MATERIAL. THIS METHOD BOOK MAKES THAT TRANSITION EASIER BY SELECTING THE EASIEST POSSIBLE MELODIES ONE CAN FIND FOR THE UKULELE. THE BOOK IS A COLLECTION OF 50 SOLOS AND VARIOUS EXERCISES, CAREFULLY SELECTED, ARRANGED (OR COMPOSED) TO ASSIST THAT STRUMMER WHO WANTS TO ADVANCE TO THE CHORD-MELODY-SOLO PLAYER LEVEL. OUR BOOK OF 50 EASY UKE CHORD-SOLOS INCLUDES:

1. THIRTY-FIVE VERY FAMILIAR SONGS, CHOSEN FOR THE THEIR SIMPLE STRUCTURE, AND --
2. FIFTEEN ORIGINAL SONGS COMPOSED BY THE AUTHOR AND DESIGNED TO BE AS EASY AS POSSIBLE FOR THE INEXPERIENCED CHORD-SOLO PLAYER.
3. A COMPACT DISK OF ALL OF THE SOLOS, (SONGS) PERFORMED BY THE TALENTED JAMES HILL. (YOU'RE LISTENING TO ONE OF THEM AS YOU READ THIS) THIS DISK IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT IN ACQUAINTING THE STUDENT TO THE LATTER GROUP OF SOLOS, THE ORIGINALS.
4. A LOW G-STRING FOR THOSE WHO ARE ACCUSTOMED TO THE HIGH G-STRING (RE-ENTRY) TUNING. (For further information turn to the page entitled "YOU'LL FIND THE SOLOS EASY - HERE'S WHY".)
