My Project

Our middle school chorus concerts often include additional instruments to incorporate into our live shows. I would love to begin incorporating music with ukuleles to teach my students how to play the ukulele and to give them the opportunity to play the ukuleles as part of the accompaniment to songs in our concerts.

It will be a great opportunity to teach my students the origin of the ukulele and to incorporate it into multicultural themed concerts!

Additional lighting will also enhance the ambience of our stage for the themes of our shows each year.
