      Hello . Ive managed to play pretty much on finger style and it sounds pretty good. However the quick change f to g has me stumped. I've resorted to strumming that part which sounds ok....ish but not right, any ideas on how to get that part picked? Thankyou

    Hello Bernadette. I'm a 72 year old geezer who acquired my only ukulele on February 8th. I've been working diligently since then and your tutorials are a massive help. But when I came across this "Hallelujah" video about two weeks ago I added it to my daily regimen. I have watched Celtic Woman perform it for a long time. I want to become proficient at it and am pretty good except for the F to G transition. I haven't seen a video specifically on the move but I have slowed that part of the song down, as you recommend in several of your videos, and will get it. Any help you can provide is appreciated. I did subscribe and enjoy your presentations. And Kit Kat, of course. Thank you.

      Children, at 79, my voice is a bit cracky! But we are enjoying it, aren't we? What I like to do is change the key. Instead of the key of C, why not D or E flat? Or if a song is in the key of G, learn it and then do another key. In no time, you will be way ahead of everyone! Remember to play the 7th Aug 5th, Dim5th, and even the Ninth. Listen to the sound of Eb7-5 (D#7+5). Put into muscle memory 120 chords, and you can jam with any band! Another fun thing to learn is to play each chord in another position!

  • @ricknewman6939
    @ricknewman6939 4 роки тому +27

    Okay, simply the best Ukelele teacher and video ever. Let's go over why. The video is smartly done. There's no annoying background it's sparse which lets you concentrate on the teacher. One annoying thing about most tutorials is that they don't work out what they want to say so you're flooded with a lot of " uhh" and "uhhh" and " umm" and worst of all repeating what they just said five different ways. Bernadette explains everything like a knowledgeable teacher without blithering her way through it.
    Her teaching method is fantastic. She doesn't just show you what chords to play but HOW to play them! She shows you what finger to use on each chord explaining WHY(which is invaluable to any person wanting to properly play an instrument) you should use that finger. Her teaching style is great in that she breaks down every sequence of the song, shows the chords, plays through it and then you can play along with her as well. She breaks down each part and goes over it. No part of the video is wasted by stupid meandering where you say to yourself, " GET ON WITH IT!!!"
    The next part is the blocking of the video. To the right she shows finger tablature of each chord and continues it throughout the video. Forgot how to finger that chord? No problem it's right there!! What chord to play at what point? No problem it's on the bottom of the screen! These are two important tools to help you learn to play better and she has them on the screen! Other videos will have somebody explain the chord and put their fingers on the neck as that's all you need to see. They will also go through what chords to use once and that's it. Can't remember what chords to use or how to play them? Better get a pen and paper and write it down cause you won't see it again in the video. Sadly the style of the video that she does shouldn't be groundbreaking but she knows it and incorporates it all in a way that makes learning much easier than about any tutorial out there.
    It's obvious that she DOES teach btw. The level of expertise in teaching is there to see.
    I also like the bit of whimsy in the video with the blue crepe on the head of the Duke. She doesn't explain it nor does she need to( I have a plastic pink pig wedged in between the strings at the head of my bass(I'm a Pink Floyd fan). She just leaves that there as a person that has fun teaching music.
    Sorry I wrote a book for a comment but it is so very rare to find good, well thought out tutorials on UA-cam on ANY subject and such quality should be noted...and praised.
    I haven't watched any of her other tutorials yet but I have high hopes( please dont disappoint me Bernadette!!)
    For anybody out there wanting to make a tutorial about ANYYHING AT ALL this makes for an excellent tutorial on how to make an excellent tutorial. Okay my fingers are hurting from typing so much so I gotta go...peace.

I will be a lot stronger, & my immune system will be back to where it should be by then. My Son got a treadmill for me, & my Husband got an exercise bike for me. OH BOY! This is going to be fun. I won't be able to move. My muscles will be sore. So I will probably be in bed 2 or 3 days. The perfect time to work at it all day. I'm excited. I have never had someone teach like you do. I guess I must be on your kids level. I Appreciate that. Thank you.

    Beautiful tutorials Bernadette ❤️ I am giving my niece a ukulele for her 7th year birthday, showing her some songs, as we are in a band together ´Poison in a Bottle´ she picked the name, I love it :) Your tutorial will help her and me to find our ukulele wings. Much love and thanks to you.

    THANK YOU COACH!!! (Just flew in from Texas) - Before i left i wanted to show my sister how to play this
    BEAUTIFUL SONG finger style. I showed her the basic - but referred her to your channel. Struggled with playing this on my guitar. YOU simplified it - and i FINALLY got to play & sing this on my Uke! THANK YOU, thank you, thank you!!! EXCELLENT TUTORIAL❤️❤️❤️. (Wow, just noticed this Hallelujah has over 300,000 views)🎉🎉🎉

    I love how differentiated your lessons are! You give choices for people depending on their level - for my experience, I found the chords easy but I'm really new to finger picking. I learned something new about assigning one finger per string!
    I had to switch to my baritone about halfway through because the soprano is just soooo small for my arm to comfortably position itself to fingerpick. Someday my tenor will come...💙💙💙

    • @BernadetteTeachesMusic
      @BernadetteTeachesMusic  6 років тому +4

      I LOVE that you mention this! Different uke sizes do sit differently on the arm and make a difference! I also reach for my bigger ukes for things like this. I will talk about this in a future video. I hadn't thought about it 🤔

      Hi Mari!!! Welcome to this uku community 🤗🤗 I’m so glad you found us! Since you just got your ukulele, I recommend you take the 30 Day Uke Challenge. It will help you learn all the basics in order and by the end you’ll be playing Somewhere Over the Rainbow.

Whenever I do covers, I mostly wait for the right time or day that I really feel doing that song, so that I can perform it with emotions😊.Again, thank you for this tutorial Ms. B👌. I promise you will see me cover this 😁. By the way , I always play this in my Low g uke, it also sounds great 👍.✌🏻&❤️

    I would just like to Thank You, for your online classes. I love the way you teach. I have only been playing the Ukulele for the past 3 weeks, and I love it so very much. I had a serious life changing riding accident in 2003, which has left me disabled, but not unable. Here in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 we are still having massive issues with the COVID-19 virus, with the lockdown and all the restrictions, I can not find a better time to learn to play an instrument, and I have chosen the Ukulele.
    I am having a few problems with the one beat notes and changing so quickly, like when you go from E7 to F then G, I might of got that order of notes wrong there, but you know what I mean. I practice and practice everyday, like everything with me, I am slow in getting there, but I will not give up until I get it right.
    I think you are an amazing teacher and I am going to stick with your lessons. I see this Hallelujah was posted a couple of years ago. Are you still posting new stuff here on UA-cam? I do hope so, if not, do you have your own website?
    Once again, Thank You.
    Kindest of Regards
    Sarah E Bowker😊

    Hi, I love the tutorial, but I have a question. If you're finger picking the whole song and the finger picking pattern is two beats, how do you finger pick the F and G chords that are held for one beat?

    • @JazLynxi
      @JazLynxi 3 роки тому

      Since 2 beats is string plucks I pluck the first 3 in F and the second 3 in G
