Summary of This Method
Designed as a guided introduction by one of the most influential musicians on the current scene, this ukulele method accompanies you from the very basics to more musical and expressive playing elements. You will discover the essential foundations for steady progress: note reading, chord understanding, transitions, rhythmic setup, as well as right-hand and left-hand techniques adapted to the modern ukulele. The approach is particularly effective for developing clean and musical playing, thanks to concrete examples designed to be played immediately.
The book is based on complete transcriptions of each example, allowing you to work independently with a clear and structured support. In parallel, the online video reinforces learning by showing Jake Shimabukuro in a teaching situation: explanations, demonstrations, and execution of all examples to fully understand the movement, attack, and expected sound output. You thus benefit from an ideal dual support to progress: the precision of the written material and the clarity of the gesture in video.
The video also includes performances by Jake of some of his most appreciated arrangements, including "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "Ukulele Five-Oh." An excellent way to boost your motivation, sharpen your listening, and inspire you to build your own sound. Access is provided via a unique code included with each copy, with the option to stream or download the content, so you can practice wherever and whenever you want.
