Another solo arrangement of an old German Christmas carol. A simple version of it is available in the free e-book “Solo Ukulele für Einsteiger”.

One of the many pieces from Michael Praetorius’ collection called Terpsichore.

One of the oldest tunes known to mankind. It was found on an ancient greek stele. Wikipedia: Seikilos epitaph Works nicely with the ukulele IMHO.

A little solo arrangement of an old German Christmas carol. A simple version of it is available in the free e-book “Solo Ukulele für Einsteiger”.

The pieces from Choan Gálvez’ e-book are fun to play, and the musical typesetting is really nice too!

Another wonderful celtic harp piece, composed by the blind irish harp player Turlough O’Carolan. His unique melodic style has a very renaissance-like feel to me! So I hid a little bit of renaissance music within this arrangement. Do you recognize it?  

A fascinating piece from the blind harp player Turlough O’Carolan. Played on my Brüko No.6.

A very simple arrangement of the theme of Handel’s Sarabande. Again from “Solo Ukulele für Einsteiger”.

In Winterswijk I had the opportunity to obtain a Schaepe in mint condition. I readily upgraded it with better tuners too. The tabs for this arrangement are in “Solo Ukulele für Einsteiger”.

A little Sor minuet. I played it on a really cheap ukulele: Ok, I bought it used. However, I was told the price was only 13 Euros on Ebay when it was new. It’s a “Tokky” ukulele. Isn’t it amazing how much ukulele you can get for so little money nowadays?
