Par . The ukulele is becoming more and more popular, and more and more guitarists are getting involved with the 4-stringed little sister of the guitar. Especially for this group, the alternative tuning of the ukulele with a low G-string ('low G') is interesting, because not only the range is enriched, but also the feeling of playing with a low string is very reminiscent of a guitar. The melody-chord playing in this songbook uses techniques of classical guitar as well as folk guitar and combines chords with the song melody to create rousing arrangements, all of which have proven themselves in lessons and have been written by the experienced author and pedagogue Patrick Steinbach to be easy to moderately difficult. / Date parution : 2023-09-13/ Recueil / Ukulélé Sol Grave
