Ukulele for Beginners - Session 6 (Instructor: Duncan Perry) - BAR HARBOR, ME 2026

This is a live, online class. LEARN TO PLAY THE UKULELE, THE HAPPIEST INSTRUMENT AROUND UKULELE PLAYERS ARE POPPING UP EVERYWHERE! Want to join them? Here’s your chance to learn how to play this wonderfully versatile, go-anywhere instrument in a relaxed program taught with humor by our popular INSTRUCTOR, DUNCAN PERRY. He will introduce you to essential chording and playing skills using familiar songs. The uke is a little musical powerhouse on which you can play folk music, rock, country, blues, jazz, classical – nearly any style, and, of course, the tunes that grandma and grandpa know. Once you master the basics, you won't want to stop. Will you be recruited to perform at Carnegie Hall? Well, not right away. But, as the saying goes, ‘The best player isn’t the person with the greatest technical skill. It’s the person who can touch the most hearts.’ You’re never too old to launch this healthful and fun-filled musical adventure! If you don’t have access to a playable UKULELE, contact us for information about buying one. So, grab a uke - you don’t need to read music - sign up, tune up and show up!
