Great News: Thomas Macomson is back to business! One of my best ukuleles is the Makapili soprano — built by Thomas Macomson. In the meantime he had to stop building ukuleles.

Te Deum by Marc-Antoine Charpentier, played on a Kiwaya KS-0. I tuned it to ADF#B, and used a capo at the 2nd fret, to achieve a higher pitch. This sounds better for this piece, I think.

The famous tune from The Magic Flute, where papageno sounds his magic bells to escape Monostratos and his slaves. It was a bit of a challenge to find the right key to make it sound good on the ukulele. I’m playing here an Ukumele mahogany soprano ukulele with ADF#B tuning. It wouldn’t sound so nice…

I thought: This sounds much better with the ukulele as with the guitar — I’ve gotta do something! UPDATE: Tabs are now available here. The tabs didn’t work out well with Powertab. Perhaps I’ll consider this piece when I make another tab booklet with Lilypond.
