Totally! Improvising this way feels a bit unreal because it’s difficult to share with others, no one really sees it. And loneliness yeah… I’ve just added a link in the description of a video I made for “fun” about that emotion. You might resonate with some of that.

Thanks for that amazing comment! It’s difficult to describe and it’s difficult to talk about, which makes it difficult for everyone to understand what Free Improvisation is about. I’m happy to hear that you resonate with the words AND the music too.

Yes definitely! This right hand “inventive variety” is MY personal touch. The idea I’m trying to convey is that one should focus on developing THEIR OWN “inventive variety”(I like that concept 😁) Copying the patterns I play, would get you stuck in overwhelming complexity. On the other hand, if you focus on having fun with simplicity for a while, you’ll eventually start developing your own unique voice and very complex patterns that even I would not be able to reproduce with the same flow. Hope it makes sense to you, I’m writing this a bit too early in the day

If it sounds good without chords, it’ll sounds amazing with them Have fun and thank you Julia!

Finally sat down in nature and played this. Very relax ing

​​⁠Oh really?! Amazing that you did! It does feel quite different to play outside vs inside, where you are really affect how you feel… and that’s exactly why playing outside your comfort zone is so “interesting”. I wonder how it went for you.

@@TiBO_Uke im just loving these simple little "pieces".. yesterday i was very tired. So i reached out for my uken lay on couch just picking the notes.. itgot me offthe couch and i started practising. Keep going.. this is wonderful..

I’m happy you enjoyed it because creating it was a lot of fun for me as well! It doesn’t seem to find many viewers but it eventually will once the word spreads on how powerful of a practice it actually is for both Learning and Relaxation 😁

Oh wow! I wondered about that indeed, as I recorded and edited this video I kept in mind that this wasn't a very "2024 UA-cam friendly video", but it felt right to share a more human side and not just soul less tutorials. Big thanks for that comment, I'm happy to see that this style of video still finds and connects people

Always a pleasure to see that it resonates with others 😁

Great! Indeed I could see from the video statistics that a lot of my audience is also watching guitar content (and sometimes piano too). The Ukulele is a gateway to better emotional expression through music, let me know how the transition feels, I might be able to help

Such a good and important question, I used to have horrible rhythm until recently so I have a lot to say. I wrote it down and will answer eventually in video.

I'm trying to find time to post more, my life is much more stable now. I'll do my best to post a video per week. I'll eventually release a long & detailed video about how to approach Music Theory for Ukulele Improvisation specifically. Thanks so much for your support Julia

@@TiBO_Uke we are all helping each other... thanks Tibo..your plan sounds great!

Thanks for the question, what you're referring to is "playing songs by ear". My style is indeed more "free" in that it's not about reproducing but creating. I'll definitely want to cover that in a video because many people asked me this already

@@TiBO_Uke No, I meant I also support independent style. Not restricted to any particular song or music. My approach is to learn to play fingerstyle ukulele with different patterns. I am trying but failing to it. I hope I am making sense. I am willing to know your approach. It is not only about playing chords but also to create some music. How do you do that? so relaxed.

Ok yes I understand now! I’ll record more videos where I talk freely about my own journey and I’ll keep your comment in mind. I can’t promise to give you the tools in just one video but it should definitely help answering the How’s and Why’s

Amazing to read that! I used to fear sharing my music too. It's easy to feel pressure from expectations, but confidence comes when you let go and just enjoy expressing yourself, including all the imperfections 😁. You're on the right path!

These words are resonating a lot with me, thanks a lot for sharing these thoughts! We'll keep exploring together!

Interesting observation because that's how I use it for. This kind of Meditative Music is amazing for day dreaming and reflecting. Very Slow, Very Humble

You're very welcome Mike! Thanks for your comments

Take it slowly! Learn & Practice in chunks everyday and you'll get there much faster than you think. I also started as a total newb 4 years ago 😁

Yesss! Next week

Thanks a lot for that message, so many questions I had when I started too! If you have more of those questions, drop me a message

Hey thank you for the tip, the only fun thing I noticed was the enormous cloud of mosquitoes that exploded out of the hay when I accidentally bumped into it after I finished recording

A more “natural” method of playing, I like that way of describing it. It really is much more accessible and fun than the stereotypical musical sheets and metronome hell

That Ukulele is a Flight Diana Soundwave in Concert size. I can’t pronounce myself too much about recommending it or not. It’s definitely amazing instrument but the Soundwave system which is the key feature of these Flight models stopped working right after the 2 years warranty expired.

@@TiBO_Uke thanks for the feedback!

@@pedrosanchezpalma4443 You’re welcome 😉

Hey Pedro! I’m glad you enjoyed it, I hope it helps you in your creative journey

And thanks you for all your nice comments!

These are 2 very strong words, thank you!

I’m glad! I hope you manage to keep up the practice

Congrats to you for practicing that! These are great tools to grow confidence with your fingers

@@TiBO_Uke great.i will take a look.. thank you..i just love simple and meditative style which you embody even tho you obviously know lot!!

I’m trying! Thanks a lot!

Yes that makes a lot of sense, your feedback is even more valuable to me since I know you’ve been following my content since a while now. I’m technically able to do that and I really want to implement it for future videos, the issue I have now is time but I’ll try something different next week! Also this video is a challenging one which probably requires a few replays to master. It’s just 1:30 but is a condensed version of what could probably be a 20min tutorial video on another channel.

Yeah! Over the years I’ve learned how to not take care of it because this instrument is truly indestructible.

If you enjoy both of these things you might be in the right place indeed! Thanks for the nice comment ☀️

Yes! It seems so obvious but really it’s not. How to enjoy music is something that you can learn and practice much like any other skills

@@TiBO_Uke❤

It’s a Concert. Whatever you have or want they all have their strengths. The best Ukulele is the one you’re going to play with and not let sit in the dust :)

It can be the warm up yeah, but you can certainly make a full song out of it! Thanks for the message, take care ✌️
