World Music Safari - The Charango

[@andreasboose5611]

I love the Sound of the Charango, sounds richer and fuller as a Ukulele ❤

[@worldmusicsafari]

Me too, and in person it sounds very full for such a small instrument.

I’m learning on one right now. I’m curious what is your strumming pattern? I like it it’s rythmic and I can’t figure out why mine sounds very basic. Is guitar your primary instrument? I find guitar players have more variations in rhythms.

It’s hard to write about strumming but you gave me a great idea. I’ll just do a video about it! give me a few days, er, maybe more since a hurricane is headed our way, but I’ve had a lot of questions about strumming patterns. What I use is pretty simple once you see it. I’m a saxophone player, so if I can do it I’m sure you can too. I’ll be sure to tag you in the vid so you can see it.

@@worldmusicsafari thank you so much. I hope the hurricane didn't bring to much strife.

@@GlockPeace thank you! We are OK, but many friends down the road have flooding in their house and lost cars and possibly their houses. It’s the worst flooding we’ve seen in many many decades.

Charango tuning - G C E (double) A E Comes out to an am7 chord to play traditional Huaynos from Peru/Bolivia.

@@PermenterOrchestra I may do a video on the traditional tuning then! Thank you so, so much.
