Thank you for such a wonderful time creating for UES! Love, Mrs. Clayton

Keep working on previous weeks' songs! Link to last week is HERE. If you need to go back further, use the LABELS to easily search. I would suggest the "Music" label, so you can look at all the Music weeks at the same time.

I have some other strumming videos that you might like to try out.
This will give you some other strumming options, if you are ready for more.

Island strum
How to Chuck
How to strum really fast

I have my uke tuned up and ready to jam. Who is going to come play some ukulele songs with me today?

Sweet Treats

My last sweet treat for you is a long one! But you should totally check it out!

A famous opera that is staged using famous video games: Mario Bros, The Legend of Zelda, Donkey Kong.

Who knew that opera could have so much in common with video games?!?!

The opera is called "The Magic Flute" written by Amadeus Mozart. Yeah, that guy, the REALLY famous composer guy who was performing all across Europe, and for kings and queens when he was elementary school aged. Brilliant. Enjoy!
