    As a long time music educator, lover and teacher of jazz, and with this being one of my all time favorite songs let me just say.... you are my new hero!!! AMAZING.

    my online ukulele teacher and I just had a BLAST analyzing your strum patterns on this-- and everything else! thank you so much for your incredible and inspiring work! (those slides? that reverberation?? the mixing of the song's notes and chords on one playthrough? even more?!?! blown away!)

    Sure, if I had an expensive uke, studied music theory, had amazing dexterity, flexibility and rythm, played for years, and loved what I did, I could play that song too. Ok, not as well though.
    I've only been playing the uke for a couple of years, but you have definitely opened a universe of possibilities for this unassuming musical instrument. I adore it.

    I've been working my way though "Duets For One" and absolutely love it. It has really helped me learn a whole new style of playing and it is a joy to incorporate it in my other songs. Very cool to see you play it, as it is one of the songs I play most from that collection

    Well done sir. My knowledge of the Ukulele has been improved. The last time I heard anything was Tiny Tim and that is an insult to you and your wife's abilities. I saw another video with the both of you playing and you could see her happiness in sharing what you do. Keep it close to your heart sir. It's a rare thing. Thanks Again, Bob Ordewald

I play the uke as well but not nearly as good as you. I love this song and the way you play it. Could you perhaps make a tutorial on how to play? Good job fellow uke player😄

    I know some basic music theory, played the piano for a few years and I want to know how do I reach that level of skill. Playing basic chords seems so boring to me and I want to learn to solo along backing tracks, mixing in chords, or do arrangements like this. Can anyone tell me what do I need to practice?

    • @jameshillmusiq
      @jameshillmusiq  4 года назад +1

      Hi Michal, you need to study the "solo" style of ukulele. Get started with my free tutorials: ruclips.net/video/0Se5w7Kio2w/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/VYqtQ_MXtnw/видео.html then check out The Ukulele Way (www.uketropolis.com/theukuleleway). Uke on!

      Greetings Michael 🙋‍♀️ I've been playing for 11 months with piano & guitar as my music foundation, and I took all of James Hill's free lessons last year, and then I saw him play "Billy Jean" at 2013 NAMM... OMG! The world of ukulele opened up for me!
      Since my skills goal is to play James' version of "Billy Jean" on my 70th birthday this September 2021, I figured that if I wanted to emulate James in his playing of that piece, maybe I'd better take some lessons from him... So in looking for something to dig my fingers into for the new year, I signed up for The Ukulele Way and I love it.
      James comes at the fretboard through the pentatonic scale & it's completely shifted my paradigm on "embracing the note & becoming one with it", which is the Aloha way of learning uke. You can also check out his "Ukulele in the Classroom," which is free educational curriculum that James & his father have perfected for the Canadian School Music Programs. Go to Uketropolis & check it out! You will not be disappointed!
      Happy Trails, CharLee🙋‍♀️at #Ragamuffin_Ukes #jameshill #uketropolis
