The melodies used in these arrangements are drawn from various Jewish traditions, secular and sacred, and are among the most popular of tunes. Included are Sephardic and Eastern European folk tunes, Hasidic and Klezmer tunes, and liturgical songs. The arrangement styles are varied, including simple melody (with lyrics and chords), expertly arranged classical-style solos for players at all levels, and four lengthy duets and a trio. Players of any level of expertise can enjoy this collection - whether solo or together with others. You may preview this, and many other books for ukulele, at the author's website: EllenWhitakerGuitar.com. In addition to the (expected) Notation Guide and Chord Charts, the author has generously included some unexpected treats. These include the interesting and informative "A Brief Music Theory Lesson: About the Scales in Jewish Music," a thorough Glossary, and a ten-page section of Annotations. Although the book is primarily for ukulele with a low G fourth string on it, there are several pieces to enjoy for those who keep a high G string on their ukuleles. Chord fingerings for vocal accompaniment are exactly the same whether the fourth string is a high G or a low G. Also, seven of the melodies do not use the fourth string at all, so either tuning can be used for those as well.
