This is the first ukelele channel I have come across who is not uploading only song tutorials. learning a lot from your videos ❣️
You inspire me to learn and practice 😊
Today I went into a shop to get a tenor ukulele... I ended up with a bariton ukulele and I love it! I used to play the guitar, but because of arthritis in my fingers and carpal tunnel syndrome, I can't play the guitar anymore. So I got a soprano ukulele and an online course to learn how to play it. Then i heard about a tenor ukulele and wanted to try that, because the sound of the soprano is a bit too high for my liking. I'm more a person for lower and softer sounds, more guitar-like. Now i found your channel and I love your demonstration of the bariton ukulele! It sounds so much like my beloved guitar and is somehow a bit easier to play. Now this is my instrument; finally found it!
I hope to see more of you on RUclips and more of the bariton ukulele.
Thank you so much! And if you ever have a course on playing the bariton ukulele, I'd love to take it!
Try 1/2 a teaspoon of ginger with 1/2 a teaspoon of turmeric in a glass of lemonade - my sister put me onto this as she has osteo arthritis in her hands - I have arthritis in my knee - try it for a few days - it cleared my arthritis - it's bloody marvellous!
WOW. Using Em instead of Am as part of the 4-chord progression gives such a different and beautiful feel.
You make the ukulele sound so magical.
Please add time stamps people its not that hard
0:30 we all start somewhere
1:10 understanding dynamic qnd tone
2:40 the simple Percussive technique
4:40 change chord shape
6:40 learn music theory
8:00 learn the finger techniques
9:40 break the chord
10:55 add melody
Thanks a lot 🙌🏻🎸☀️
@@MarcoCirilloUkulele yeah no problem man a man once said if people aren't doing something then just do it
2:31
This is genius. Really helping me to move away from only learning one song at a time to making them my own and adding variation and creativity to them! If you'd make videos about music theory, and how to apply that in ur playing, that'd be soooooo awesome!!
I agree!
Yes please!!

We would apreciate that!
Pete Farrugia in his channels got lessons and pdf about ukelele and music theory
Hello! Long time bass player here, and I've recently fell in love with ukelele. Been playing it for about a year now, and your channel has really opened my eyes to the heights the instrument can reach. Thank you!
Thanks Dob. The Uke is a lovely instrument. I am sure it feels a lot smaller than a bass ☀️🎸
There is a bass version of the ukulele, I have no idea if it's any good but I figured I'd mention it as I think it may be something you'd like. Lol
@@BlueDragonMedia There is a Uke bass but because the scale length is smaller, the strings have to be much thicker and heavier. The tone is more like a thud. It doesn't have much ring or sustain. Nevertheless, some like it and a great way to get a bass sound in a compact instrument.
Brilliant lesson, thank you
I wish I had you as a uke teacher when I started 6 years ago. You are incredible and I'd willing pay for 1-2-1 on zoom etc. for lessons. Thanks.
Thank you Marco. It’s great to have the different elements of practice broken down into steps. This is very helpful. ❤️🎶
Very helpful and well thought out! Thank you an excellent lesson.
Thank you Marco for making valuable, helpful videos such as this one. And thank you for having respect for the instrument. 👍
Love your technique and very beautifully demonstrated! Mahalo! 💕🌴
I'm at my 100th uku video and yours is of of the best and the most unique. So inspiring! Thank you!
Your videos are a pure joy to watch and hear. Thank you so much for your hard work bringing these to us. Subscribed.
Awesome video… Was starting to get bored playing the same chords and this has given me a new direction to go and more options to build on. Thank you!
You are mind blowing...thanks for this wonderful tutorial 🔥🔥🎸
Excellent. Thanks Marco.
I always watch your videos since I found them recently. Took up the ukulele a few months ago and your tutorials are simply the best! Thank you!!!
Thank you Marco! So much new information, very excited!!😊
Wow, mind-expanding. Thank you, Mr. Cirillo.
That was very helpful. Appreciate you sharing the various techniques.,Thanks so much.
Great lesson! Thank you!
Thank you for doing this. This is amazing. I didn't know ukelele can sound so beautiful like that.
Great. Will try the rhythmic step next... So many nice ideas to go on a way to a pro player.. Just have fun.
Thanks!
This is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much! Cant wait for the day when Ill start adding melodies myself :D
i love the ease with which you share. I am early player and am a grand improviser - so for me this has been very rewarding and i am eager to learn more finger pic and melody within key.
Incredible video, I can tell I'll be coming back to this a lot, hopefully over many years
Absolutely brilliant! I am just starting to learn how to play. This is great to look forward to when I become more proficient
Thank you for this video 😊
Thanks!
Wow I aspire to play like this.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and encouragement that it is possible
So niiiice ! Thank you so much for sharing all these techniques Marco, I've been willing to progress on my technique and that's is just what I needed. Made some mistakes that brought new colour to my songs too so thanks for mentioning a mistake can actually be a technique!!! 🦋
You play so smoothly. You make that Ukulele sound Amazing!! Keep up the good work!! You are an inspiration to keep on chugging along to get better and as good as you. Can't wait to play like you.
Dear marco
I am far away from your brillant Talent. I am a beginner and every time I try to play like you I could cry because it sounds awful. Maybe you can make a Video for beginners, very slow and with an easy melody. I like to feel great again 🤣
Anyway I will try Hard and I love the way you play. 🥰
Thanks Katrin. I’ll try to make a video for beginners ☀️🎸
I'm sure it doesn't sound that bad. I started to learn guitar last year and it takes a lot of practice, but I make small progress. Do not compare your self with pros :)
you literally make the best tutorials on youtube! :) thank you for your work
Thank for inspiring and sharing this content.. really amaizing your skill at simplifying concepts and encouraging growth. Big up
Beautiful. So much really useful info. Thank You!
I actually really appreciate this for what it is. This is a man’s process. Not an actual tutorial of right or wrong options. This was helpful for me to put along side my own process and analyze how fruitful it’s been. Sincerely, I found this refreshing. Thank you!
So good to have video's like this. I have been playing clarinet and saxophone for years and years, and around 2 years ago I was done with it and fell in love with playing ukulele (this was something different). Now when I am getting better at it I start to focus on technique and theory. The cool thing is that a lot is the same, but on a clarinet or sax there is no concept like a chord or rhythm with your other hand. It's one note at a time. Learning this whole concept is really cool, and I love your video's. Thanks for making them.
Great content! Love it! Happy strumming!
Nice, thank you for sharing.
I love the video. Your such a versatile musician. I have played guitar for years but now playing the Ukulele as well. These steps give a chance for new expression with the Uke. Your clear and concise explanations with examples always makes your video a joy to watch.
This is such an amazing tutorial 💜
Very nice inspiring lesson. Thank you for all you do.
Thank you Marco..your videos are very in depth.. this one was very useful. Some you make are too fast for me to follow but i will keep practising and watching you.
I really enjoyed this!! Thank you!
Beautiful sounds …Thanks, Steve, Bristol
Great tips! Thank you so much!
Wonderful lesson. Thank you.
last words of the clip is the most important words to make these things well the lesson to take place. It is great to learn from you. Thank you.
Kool. Thanks Marco. You're so chill and calm I feel I got this gig down!
Thanks John ☀️🎸
This was such a great video! Thank you!
So inspiring
Your awesome dude. I’ve been toying with Uke for years and never really stuck with it, it got boring like you said. I find your videos really educational and I like your presence and style. Thanks for the vids, wishing you Well brother
Very good lesson, thanks from Asia.
Best ukulele video I've seen for sure
i just love love love your videos. You are my fave teacher and fave uke player! Will I ever get as good as you lol.... I aspire to, more more practise
Very useful techniques borrowed from Guitar playing that help the novice ukulele player get more out of the instrument. The "percussive" technique is often called the "chuck strum," for those who want to research more. Thank you for all you do!
Beautiful!
The romantic room , place uku stayed , love it🤩👍
Wonderful! Enjoy your music so much! You are so talented!
You continue to amaze me by the beautiful sounds you make with a ukelele. So inspiring. This is an excellent, progressive lesson that is well thought out. Thank you so much.
Enjoy :)
Excellent teacher!!!
Amazing thank you so much!
Thanks Marco
great inspiration!
Marco, you and this channel are amazing. It amazes me that you don't have millions of subscribers yet. The way that you present everything is educational, entertaining and inspirational! Bravo, sir!
Great tutorial thanks
So helpful! What a great teaching video.
Thanks for sharing
Wow! You're a good teacher. It made me interested in Ukelele
Marco I really enjoyed this small, simple & yet so inspiring video. Every time I see one of your tutorials you make me love my Uke so much more. It's such a beautiful and happy instrument. I really enjoy your style with it and your technique. You make me want to play better each time I see your videos. Have you made an Instrumental CD of you playing the Ukulele? I would like to purchase one if you do. Also I know you also play the guitar but, honestly, which one do you prefer now that you also play the Ukulele?
You are inspiring, like to Play like you in the futur. Just bought m'y ukulélé but Play guitare before. Thank you.
Your a very good teacher!
you are true master, from your voice tone to the information you share and how you share it, i wish i have your skills and knowledge to understand the music as you do, im starting this musical path and meny of this information is tottaly new for me thanks alot!!
Very inspiring and useful 👏 Thank you for your kind work was done for this video 😊
I’ve been “practicing” the ukulele off and on for YEARS, but I have never been able to find a niche that would be exciting to “get back into it.”
My PTSD and ADHD have been getting in the way. But hopefully I can make progress in learning a few techniques.
Thank you for your videos!
Any progress?
@@alexserafini24 nothing yet. But I haven’t given up yet!!
Fantastic lesson
I truly appreciate your style and mastery!
Thanks a lot Chuck!
You are such a great teacher for me. I Love your style.
Thanks a lot Lexie!
Jérôme from France, the chords is beautiful. Thank you Marco
Thanks Jerome
Your filming and editing is terrific.
This is a great tutorial - if I do this everyday for the next year I might have something that sounds ok 😅
Awesome video thanks
this is cool ive learn...
Thank you.
Marco, you are truly my hero. Thank you so much for all your effort into making these videos. I've learned so much from you already, even from just watching a few videos. Lots of love from across the world and wishing you and your family all the best ❤️
Thanks a lot for the kind words! 🎸☀️ keep us posted on your progress! ☀️
THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH FOR YOUR WONDERFUL AND HELPFUL TIPS🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 AM DOING MY BEST TO FOLLOW YOUR TIPS...!!! AMAZING SHARING
Am so happy you read and acknowledged my comment... 🤝💥👊🎼🎵🎶🎸
Sir this lessons are so precious for me I can’t tell you. Thank you so very much. Love for little boy 🤗
Thanks 🙏🏻
Wow. Great lesson! You have a new sub
Oh!! that's open almost galaxies !! thank you so much for this video. I have a question about how to hold a Ukulele, have you made a video for that ?
nope. Your steps are way better than my steps. I'm going to try your steps. Thanks man!
Been playin the uke for maybe a week now and I can’t stop playing I haven’t went a day without playing yet and it’s actually crazy how much stuff I just did randomly or by accident that actually ended up sounding cool and ended up being a real chord that exists I’m sort of getting into the “finger style” way of playing now just plucking inside and outside strings while switching back and forth from gmaj to gm and it sounds pretty cool awesome video I will be trying these little techniques and check out the g Maj scale as well thank you sir👏🏻
Hey Marco!
Thank you for this! I've only been playing for about a month but i practice every single day and like you say i've gotten a bit bored of the usual stuff so having all of this to try to incorporate is amazing!
Thank you again for your work!
How it going now? I’m one month in now and this is a bit advanced for me
Really excellent. The only thing I could add is the obvious point of really listening to what you're doing and so being able to integrate any new variations you discover by accident, if that really exists, into of your act.
Thank you for the list! It very well summarizes what I would like to achieve. I think I'm like "half-way there" with technique, due to some experience with normal guitars, but much worse with theory. I will definitely use this list to help me guide myself through the ukulele journey. :D
Thanks
It's very good.
It is steps.
It is correct habit in practicing those steps.
It is those steps in time. In rhythm and pace of learning.
Technical and typical for any fretboard really.
Get comfy . Learn names. Shapes. And positions.
Then play them smoothly.
Then be glad ! It's rather easy & not steel string guitars!
Marco, Thank you for a inspirational goal that is so beautiful and achievable. I now own a Makai LT -80W and I am in LOVE with the beautiful sounds that it makes; so pure
Ahhhhhhhhh! I wish I was the only one who owns a Makai LT80. He was my first love! hehehe. Enjoy your uke Claire! :)
I have this one too. 😊
I'm playing uke 3-4 years and I came through all phases except learning music theory. I know some basic stuff from school, but I can't get myself time to dive in it.
