    In 2009, my wife and I flew Taimane out to San Diego to have her perform at our wedding party. She played for a total of about 3 hours. Her entertainment made the party something for all invited to remember for the rest of their lives. We even received thank you cards for a wedding celebration - never heard of that! She is an amazing artist and was a protegé of Don Ho before he died. Go Taimane!

    Taimane uses five picks on her right hand. They are long, acrylic fingernails. She also plays a 5-string uke with two low G strings. Besides her virtuosity, she has an irreproducible, unique style. Go Taimane!

      @@DaRedeyeJedi808 I agree. He wouldn't be so renowned if just anyone could play like he does. I have seen him twice, including this past September. I have to admit it got kind of boring the second time around. If you think of it in terms of someone playing what he does on guitar, there are probably a lot of guitarists who can do Bohemian Rhapsody. He shared the stage with a friend, who played guitar and sang, was pretty average. I used to live in Hawaii, miss the local players of Hawaiian roots music. Still, Jake is great, and a really decent, sincere guy. By the way, the flamenco tune she is playing is Malagueña, sometimes known as Malagueña Salerosa. There is an interview on UA-cam with Keith Richards where he says the first song he learned was Malagueña, taught by his uncle. I used to play a cruder version of it, far down from the skill level of Taimane Gardner or Keith Richards, but still great fun. She would be great to see live.

I think she's awesome. I've been blessed to do two shows with her (which she steals every time!) and this is just scratching the sufrace of what she can do.

    The idea worth sharing is that seemingly small things (the uke for example) can be used to the max and amazing things can come out of it. So often the notion that we need some great complex or expensive apparatus to achieve our goals... yet look what this person does with something seemingly so common and rudimentary.
    If not a virtuoso, than certainly expressing the virtuoso attitude.
    Go forth and be powerful Taimane!

Although what she is demonstrating at this time is not in the classical genre I am familiar with, it is still wonderful what can be played on the ukulele. I will be tuning in to more music by the ukulele on other UA-cam videos by her as well as others. I am looking forward to being educated in the ukulele. Have a great day everyone.

    I'm intrigued at just how many classical / Flamenco guitar players moved over to Ukulele. The styles work well, but what drew me to a Ukulele in the first place was the "Virtuosity not necessary" element of it, and how simple it was to play. Once you play it like a guitar, you might as well play guitar. Important to keep it fun.

    Saw her on Tiny Desk and had to see more. I love the flamenco arrangements, harmonic minors on a Hawaiian instrument it is meant to be. Keep shredding!

    okay. the visible scratch marks under the sound hole tells a story of grueling long hours of playing that probably came with a painful hand. and anyone who discounts that with just a "girl playing ukulele" or compares her to other great talents is just being a jerk. I respect all the great uke players we have today and we should learn from them instead of comparing them like fruits.

      Beenthere Donethat oh i know the difference of playing with steel strings. played guitar for 14 years before i fell in love with the uke. but even if it's nylon, practicing long hours would still result to sore fingers. some might be able to endure it better. but learners and beginners would atest to that.

      You can hear based on the string noise from her sliding up and down in positions that those are likely wound (steel) uke strings.

    • @sparkimoto

      I was just noticing that 3 strings were silver colored which might indicate your assumption is correct. I also noticed this instrument has 5 strings with the bass string being doubled. I am assuming this may be the same as how a 12 string is tuned with each pair of strings positioned to be fingered together.

    • @junabeee
      @junabeee 7 років тому +7

      sparkimoto You are correct, but I was just going to say that the "bass" string is actually the second down. The top string is actually higher than the second.

      I could be mistaken, but it sounds to me like she is using a low-G tuning rather than re-entrant tuning.

    Taimane... I truly hope that nasty cruel comments from some of the incredibly vile trolls that hang around UA-cam do not affect your happiness in any way. I can guarantee you that most of them have zero musical skills themselves. The only way they bring any meaning to their pathetic nasty little lives is by demeaning other people and their skills and talents. You Are an incredibly talented player and I love your music. All power to you and the Ukulele!
