What's New? [Jazz Ukuele Solo]

As I have been exploring what can be done on the ukulele, I have become more and more enamored with the sound of jazz chords on the ukulele. Listening to Lyle Ritz remarkable recordings with just ukulele and bass have inspired me. This is an arrangement of my own devising of a song that I have loved for a very long time.

Please excuse the synthesized drum and bass, they are the best I can do. For now

A high quality mp3 and my other projects can be found at my website: http://blog.classicalcode.com/2010/04/jazz-ukuele-video-whats-new/

Love this! What brand of strings are you using? They sound fantastic?

[captbaritone]

@Josiahjjr Aquila. All Kala ukes come with them (so far as I know) and they seem to be a favorite among uke players.

Yes, jazzy chords are beautiful on a uke, and you did it very pleasant! Nice!

I loved listening to "What's New?" when I was a teenager (which was 30 years ago, and it was an "old" song then). Thanks for sharing your elegant arrangement on YouTube.
