Mighty Uke Day 5 Workshop - Gerald Ross: Chord Melody for Solo Ukulele
Chord Melody is a solo approach to fretted instrument playing where both the chord and melody line are played at the same time. This is a very popular style in the
guitar world where many virtuoso players exist. Can this solo style of playing be achieved on the tiny ukulele with its four strings and very short scale? Yes it can!
Have no fear this class should actually be titled "Four strings are plenty enough!" This fingerstyle technique will use chord substitutions and single-note linesto craft complete, stand-alone arrangements. Songs from the Swing Era will be used as tools to learn this very rewarding technique.
We'll learn two arrangements. A concert or tenor sized uke tuned GCEA is recommended. Some basic right-hand fingerpicking skills under your belt will speed you along as well. No music theory needed and mo music reading required. No knuckle-busting chord shapes to learn. Class level: Confident beginner to Intermediate. Please contact Gerald with any questions at: gerald@geraldross.com.
