Ukulele Lessons that Teach Musicianship

This small, four-stringed instrument is perfect for accompanying a singer or soloist. Coordinating between both hands while keeping a steady rhythm is a useful skill that carries over to other instruments – especially the guitar. Also, as the student becomes more familiar with the ukulele, they will start to develop an awareness of chord structures and harmonic movement which is an essential tool for composers and songwriters.

Types of Ukulele

Commonly, there are four different types of ukulele: Soprano, Concert, Tenor, and Baritone Ukulele. Soprano is the smallest size of ukulele and baritone is the largest. Soprano, concert, and tenor ukulele are all played in the same way. However, the baritone ukulele uses a different tuning and different fingerings, and it is played more like a guitar. If you are thinking about taking guitar lessons in the future, then the baritone ukulele would be a great choice.

We offer ukulele lessons for all sizes of ukulele with a variety of levels and styles of music lessons in Sequim, WA.

The four strings on a baritone ukulele use the same tuning and fingering as the first four strings of a guitar.
