Would You Believe It?
The Surprising Benefits of the Ukulele.
The Surprising Benefits of the Ukulele.
Such are the unexpected benefits of playing the ukulele.
The association of the ukulele with Hawaii is far from new. In fact,
it is a descendant of a four-stringed instrument brought to Hawaii in
the late 1870′s from Portugal. It has gone through several waves of
popularity since then. Remember Tiny Tim?
But nothing quite compares to the current ukulele craze. It all began in 1999, when Israel Kamakawiwo’ole ‘s ukulele version of “Over the Rainbow”
was used in a commercial for eToys. That recording has been licensed
over 100 times since, to sell everything from paint to lottery tickets
to food, software, and banking services.
A number of major pop artists and indie rock groups have fed this
craze. They include Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam, who is about to release a
new solo album, “Ukulele Songs.”
And don’t forget Joe Browns (I'll see you in my dreams) tribute to
George Harrison at the 2002 “Concert for George.” Four years later Jake
Shimabukuro’s rendition of Harrison’s “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”
went viral on YouTube.
See Tommy Emmanuel and Jake Shimabukuro's awesome rendition here.
Most importantly, as singer Amanda Palmer, formerly of the punk cabaret group, Dresden Dolls,
puts it,the ukulele is the ideal instrument for the D.I.Y age. It
represents everything that “the grand polished machine of the music
industry is not.
This is the age of democratization in music. Anyone
can be a musician. And in a recession, when you have a $20 instrument
and there is a big musical renaissance, anyone will want to join in.”
Local strumming groups are springing up
all over the place because no special training is required to join.
Ukulele strumming goes so well with untrained vocal styles.
We were
charmed recently by a photo of two middle-aged women learning to play
the ukulele together. They looked so excited and pleased with
themselves. It brought home clearly the inner rewards that people get from making music for fun, whether you sing alone in the shower or join a ukulele orchestra.
If you already know how to play, come along and give us a few tips. We are always open to learning more.
To all newcomers ... We all HAVE to START somewhere. Now's the Time ..!
Namaste
