Welcome to my website.
My site is very much dedicated to the ukulele and the joys of playing this wonderful little instrument.
The
ukulele is still so under-rated as a serious musical instrument. In
reality, the ukulele is so incredibly versatile. Just about any style
of music can be played on it. It is a terrific accompanying instrument
for songs and has the advantage of being so portable. But it is also
well able to cope with classical music: everything from the music of
the Middle Ages to modern Minimalism.
I myself am particularly interested in arranging bluegrass tunes as well as the folk music of Britain and Ireland. If you've been thinking of buying a ukulele and learning to play it - do it. You might become addicted, but you won't regret it. This page was last modified on Friday, June 05, 2009 09:19:02 AM

Have
a look at the pictures of the ukuleles that I own. I really enjoy
playing them all and don't have any one favourite. I do, however, tend
to use some more than others - some seem to be more suited to one style
of music.
I
have compiled some tables that show the pros and cons of each of my
instruments. I shall, of course, keep this updated as I obtain more
ukuleles. And I definitely do intend to obtain more.
Hope you like the photos. | | NEW Bluegrass eBook
My new eBook, 12 Tunes for Bluegrass Ukulele is finished. It is available from this website.
The book contains 12 completely new arrangements that have not been published before.

Free TAB/music downloadsAll
the TABs that I have previously made available can be found on this
website. These TABs also have traditional musical notation along side.
These are the most up-to-date versions.
They are available in PDF format at the moment and will automatically
be opened with Adobe Reader. It is easy to print them out using this
application. Where I have done a video of the piece of music, I have put a You Tube link to my ukulele channel. I hope you enjoy using these TABs. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions: info@kenmiddleton.co.uk | |
