CONTACT musicologyacademy@yahoo.com TO BOOK YOUR LESSON -All Ages -Levels from No experience to Intermediate Jay has been teaching music for almost 30 years and is still having a blast. Introduce yourself to your new unconditional best friend... your UKULELE! ♫The Best New Music Is 100 Years Old♫ Transport yourself back in time to the 1910's, 20's and 30's by learning great songs from those decades on the ukulele. You can almost smell the dust burning off the vacuum tubes as your Victrola warms up. Using music from Tin Pan Alley, Vaudeville, Speakeasies, Pre-code Hollywood and Broadway (also student requests) I teach theory, technique and repertoire. These songs were selected because they follow a predictable pattern known as the circle of 5ths . Predictable chord progressions allow the student to learn not only individual songs but how dozens operate. Proven Method This process is a combination of detailed explanation, micro managing the geometry and gymnastics of hand movements and monkey see monkey do. 1) The student learns the chords that harmonize the melody 2) a strum pattern to create rhythm 3) how syllables in the lyrics are aligned with individual strums in the pattern so they can not only accompany themselves on their instrument but also fit into a larger musical situation
