Summary of This Method
Authored by JJREBILLARD, this method is aimed at ukulele players who want to accompany songs with more precision, character, and rhythmic vocabulary. The journey begins with a solid focus on strumming: gestures, attacks, accentuations, and placement to achieve a clean sound and reliable pulse. Each chapter can then be practiced with the CD, whose tracks and their slowed-down versions facilitate listening, reproduction, and tempo increase without losing movement clarity.
Throughout the pages, you expand your palette beyond the "Common Stroke" by exploring effects that are as musical as they are effective: damping to control resonance, tremolos to thicken a held note, and chord soloing to highlight a melody while maintaining harmony. Roll, split, and fan strokes complete the arsenal to add depth to grooves and vary textures, whether you play discreet accompaniment or a more demonstrative approach.
The examples are designed to fit real playing contexts, crossing various aesthetics (from rock to jazz, including reggae, blues, and ragtime) and echoing approaches associated with figures like Jake Shimabukuro, Roy Smeck, Cliff Edwards, Troy Fernandez, or George Formby. The second part transforms into a reference tool: a dictionary of over 600 chords clearly classified to quickly find the right position, enrich your progressions, and open new harmonic colors. The whole is complemented by pages dedicated to the ukulele universe: historical landmarks, overview of models, and instrument culture.

This ukulele learning pack is praised by customers as "practical and concise" with books that are "very interesting" and beginner-friendly. Shoppers appreciate that "no music background needed" to start playing chords immediately. However, some found the CD sound quality poor and the format outdated. The binding makes it difficult to keep books flat while playing.

very practical format. perhaps, however, it would have deserved another kind of binding because to lay the book flat in order to read what is written and do it at the same time, it is not practical.
Otherwise what I like, no musical background and from the first 10 pages you can scratch chords and pretend to be a musician...Automatically translated

The books are really very interesting, and fit in the ukulele bag, the CD is of very little use to me on the other hand: the sound is not great, and the media a bit outdated (few CD players in the house) a shame.

I did not test the method personally since I gave it as a gift to a friend but it seemed to me that it met my expectations and the description.

Just an insufficiently solid Colissimo problem that arrived torn: one of the products was very corny.
