Program Description
Event Details
Learn how to integrate a triplet stroke into your playing using Lil Rev's time tested expertise, breaking down each example into 3 simple movements. We'll learn how to count a triplet, and talk about where and how to integrate them into a song. We'll use some simple blues songs to practice a 1-2-3, 1-2-3, triplet pattern. This class is open to all levels but it will help to know some basic chords.
Lil' Rev was born and bred in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with dual passions for music and education. After college he taught music to grade schoolers at the Milwaukee Jewish Day School and served as an adjunct music historian and lecturer at The University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. After many years of performing in the Midwest, Lil' Rev left his teaching jobs behind to pursue his musical dreams full-time. Since then, he has traveled hundreds of thousands of miles, visited every state in the Union (except Alaska and Hawaii), wrote almost a dozen instructional books, recorded over a dozen albums and taught thousands of students ukulele and harmonica.
Preregistration is required. Open to adults and teens.
Additional students may be added to the class if they provide their own ukulele. Please note in the comments box if you are bringing a ukulele.
