Synopsis

You finished "21 Songs in 6 Days."
You can strum through a songbook now. But can you actually play — fingerpick a melody, hold your own on a faster song, build a solo arrangement where the melody and chords happen at once?

That's the gap this book closes.

21 More Ukulele Songs in 6 Days is the intermediate sequel — and despite the title, six days is where you start, not where the value runs out. The authors packed in enough technique, video instruction, and playing styles that you'll still be finding new ground in this book months from now.

It starts like a private lesson: how to read melodies and tab, a handful of essential techniques — then straight into the songs, ordered from easiest to hardest, so every new skill lands right when you're ready for it.

Along the way you'll pick up styles most beginner books never touch: fingerpicking a melody, fingerpicking an accompaniment, and solo ukulele — playing the melody and chords together, at the same time, on one instrument. You'll learn to control a fast song instead of rushing it, and pull a richer sound out of a slow one. And you'll get an introduction to the blues — the 12-bar structure, new chords, and enough improvisation to start making the music your own.

All 21 songs — familiar titles once recorded by artists like Burl Ives, Phish, and Nina Simone, all public domain — come with standard notation, tab, tab diagrams, and multiple strumming patterns, so you can play the same song three different ways as your skills grow. Every song also has its own free video lesson, taught directly by a Grammy-nominated music educator and a former Harvard master class piano teacher — the same duo behind the original book. A DVD is available too.

Add a full chord glossary with exact finger-placement photos, and you have less a sequel than a second education — one built for the player who already knows the basics and wants to sound like it.

Grab your copy of 21 More Songs in 6 Days — and find out what's actually possible on six days of practice.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Jenny Peters is one part of the sister duo responsible for 21 Songs in 6 Days. She stumbled upon the ukulele after finding 45 of them in one of her elementary school classrooms. Convinced she could turn her find into more than a whole lot of noise, she designed a program to teach all of her students to play successfully with only 30 minutes of class time a week. No one was more grateful than the teacher in the next classroom. A former private piano teacher in Chicago with a Masters in Piano Performance from the University of Illinois, Jenny now lives in Highland Park. Married with three kids, she shares her home with three cats and more musical instruments than she would care to name. Rebecca Bogart is the second half of the sister writing team. An acclaimed classical pianist, performer and teacher, Rebecca has been passionate about the piano and music her entire life. She has played for audiences in Italy, taught master classes at Harvard and won more than a few piano competitions. She made her solo debut at Carnegie Hall in early 2014.
