This book features over 100 traditional American folk songs newly arranged for the ukulele, with chord diagrams and melody lines in tablature and standardnotation. This extensive collection makes Favorite Old-Time American Songs for Ukulele a treasury of the best songs from the American tradition. Nothing in this book is out of range for novice ukulele players. The songs are in keys that are both easy to sing and that fit the melodic range of the ukulele. Of course, not every voice sings comfortably in every key, so information on transposition and a short discussion for players of the baritone ukulele are included. Although you do not need to read music or tablature to use this book, short introductions to each are included. In putting together this collection, the author was inspired by the old Americanpractice of making a sampler: an endearing needlework design showing off various stitches and techniques. The book presents a sampling of the best American songs for folks working in schools, churches, hospitals, coffeehouses and other public performance spaces, or for anyone wishing to expand their repertoire and brush up on a few old chestnuts. There's a little of everything here: sentimental old hearth songs, laments and lullabies, ballads and play-parties, the sacred and profane. The overwhelming majority of songs come from pre-industrial rural traditions, because this is the kindof music that seems to go well with homemade music-making in any age.

Stephen Foster - Baritone Ukulele Songbook for Beginners with Tabs and Chords Vol. 1 Stephen C. Foster (July 4, 1826 - January 13, 1864) needs no further introduction. He was the first fully professional U.S. songwriter. Because of his musical innovation, the popularity of his songs, and especially because of the quality of his songs, we most often call him "the father of American music." His hits from a century and a half ago, such as Oh Susanna, Camptown Races, Angelina Baker, Old Black Joe, Beautiful Dreamer, Old Dog Tray, and others, are gentle, incredibly rhythmic, and catchy for those times that they are still popular today. And you will find these eternal, most popular hits in this collection of books, which is intended for the widest possible circle of old-time music lovers. The collection of melodies is adapted for various "folk" instruments, such as guitar, mandolin, ukulele, guitalele, tenor banjo, cigar box guitar, and baritone ukulele. This way, fans of different instruments can easily gather to play and sing together. Unlike in books from my previous collections, I decided to use a slightly larger number of chords this time. Only in this way could I preserve the original harmonies given to us by Stephen Foster a century and a half ago. Book benefits A collection of the 30 most popular songs by Stephen C. Foster, the father of American pop music, which should not be missing from any bookshelf. Suitable for parents and children. The songs are featured with a melody, standard notation and tablature, chord diagrams, and lyrics. Included free, online audio tracks for all songs, with solo and basic chord changes. Intended for anyone who would like to increase the repertoire. Suitable for playing solo melodies, accompaniment of singing with chords, and playing in a duet. Suitable for use with other books for ukulele, guitar, guitalele, baritone ukulele, mandolin, cigar box guitar, and tenor banjo from the same songs collection. Songs from the book Ah!
