It all depends on how you look at it … So the idea is to play something easy as possible and then just work on something faster. But that’s not really how it works. Instead, we have some different approaches. First, there are many ways of approaching the task of memorizing one piece with many […]
A “basshead.” “Oh. Okay, okay. That’s a bad label.” “I know!” “Yes, but I will not let that change my mind.” “Yes, I did.” “…Then I’ll give you what you need. I want this job for my family. And I want my husband to think of me this way.” “Hurry, hurry,” I said. “Tell me […]
Are there any instruments that get you interested immediately? Can’t you go back and revisit the instrument’s sound? (Like an older keyboard player can pick up a new guitar). Are you a beginner? Are your learning needs still in good shape? You’ll still be a great guitar player! What I’m interested in is what you […]
Learning ukulele is really hard. It takes a lot of dedication and effort. It should be as simple as playing a song you have already heard. It just takes time and patience. How long should I plan my own journey to learn ukulele? When I think about it, it will take you 10 years to […]

If it was harder than guitar, I imagine it would get a lot of people fired. What I’d like to focus on in this debate is, what are the actual benefits of practicing harmonica? In a previous post ( here ) I mentioned that harmonica was probably the hardest instrument to learn in our society, […]
The original ukulele is the one that everyone starts with. It has a warm sound and a good warm tone which is what my students love. It has a lot of variety and the wood of the ukulele is pretty easy to find, which makes it an easy to pick, play and learn for beginners. […]
“It can never be said you have won everything.” ~President Ulysses S Grant I’ve recently been feeling like myself again, which is good, because it means that my mind (aka the brain) is finally able to focus.
