What else would you like to know about learning to play the ukulele? 🎵

[@marlenenix5229]

Delighted to hear from you. Have you any suggestion for me, using my lefty uke? How do I read the written music charts?

[@FreeSpiritinLightandLove]

I would love to learn to pick (after I learn the chords). I play the piano but have never played a string instrument. Thanks for your wonderful attitude!! ❤️

[@JForrestEnglish]

You're video is awesome, your enthusiasm for the Uke is contagious. I love your Uke, it's beautiful. I wish mine looked like that. It's funny, cause I played the guitar first and I love the Uke for all the same reasons - it just makes me smile!

[@LydiaWalker]

JForrest English so cool! What is your favorite song to play on ukulele?

I love your enthusiasm for ukes.. I'd love to learn this beautiful instrument.And btw, have you ever heard of Arya Dhayal..? She's from Kerala in India and both her singing and her talent with ukuleles is amazing! Thank you for creating such a video!❤️

[@LydiaWalker]

Hey thank you so much for watching and for the sweet comment. 💕 I hadn’t heard of her. That’s cool!

[@Ukulelelovers]

Cool video Lydia!

[@LydiaWalker]

[@LydiaWalker]

Yay! So glad it was helpful. I have some other videos on my channel with ukulele cover songs with the chords. Maybe they would be interested in playing along!

[@lanastehle9274]

It is so pretty

[@ishansoni-official261]

i dont know how to play ukelele though but love the sound

[@LydiaWalker]

It does sound really cool!

[@pnevlud]

Thank you for this video. I can’t sing but I play piano. I want to teach myself the uke but again I can not sing 😂 are there songs go play, which people will actually know, without singing along?

[@marktwain368]

If you can play piano, you can sight-read. So if you follow the melody (e.g. treble clef) on the ukelele then the melody sounds and you don't have to feel shy.

[@irmaadams7780]

I understood the part. Where are you learn where to place your fingers, but what about the strumming? Does this drumming happen at the same time as you’re hitting the cords or exactly? Where is the timing? I’ll wait for your answer to begin. Thank you so much in advance.

[@marktwain368]

Do like she does; draw your thumb evenly and smoothly across the four strings in a chord, say C chord for example. Most popular tunes are in 4/4 time, so strum that way: one, two, three. four. Then choose a related chord such as G and strum: G, G, G, G. Then strum the C chord again.

[@RandomDNA321]

What does key of C mean?

[@birisitakuruvoli3708]

[@mariasmith4628]

[@LydiaWalker]

Aww thanks!

[@juanperez-df1mo]

This is glorious, I been tryin to find out about "how to get started playing the ukulele" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Fenaylern Nonpareil Formula - (just google it ) ? It is a good one off product for discovering how to play the ukulele like a pro minus the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my co-worker got great success with it.

[@LydiaWalker]

Hey Juan, so glad this was helpful! The important thing is just to start and if you enjoy it, keep at it. 😊
