Ukulele Level 2: Beyond the Basics

A continuation class for those currently in my level 1 Ukulele beginner class or people who have done that course before - or others who have a similar level of experience they've gained elsewhere (they know perhaps a dozen to 16 chords and are confidently strumming their way through their favourite songs). Rather than seeking to extend our chord repertoire just now, this course will introduce a selection of playing techniques students can apply to their playing to add variety, expression and musicality. It will include finger-picking techniques as well as techniques applicable to strummed songs. We aim to cover chunking, damping, percussive sounds, new strumming technques, hammer-on and pull-off, introduce tablature notation, and look at several repeating finger-picking patterns. And some great songs! And more.
