My new Talsma uke is well varnished. My hand squeaks sliding up the neck.

- dear ann
hi, it's ruby!
thanks for the heads up on the harp...
great to know that someone else loves to play the instrument that is never in tune and the instrument that is always in tune!

Joyce Flaugher said… - Looks like you have been furnishing your blog site. I have not turned my attention to this one yet. My daughter set up a blog for me several months ago, and I spend WAY too much time on it. It is great fun though! http://www.lifeat70.com
Live, love, laugh and play ukulele.

Nancy Eaton said… - Ann, your music is WONDERFUL!! I've so enjoyed it and had fun tonight harmonizing and singing along with you. What a lovely voice you have, it's flawless, and your playing is terrific too. Wish you lived closer, it would be great to jam with you. Your songs are so well produced, the production values are very good. Mine are just one-offs, single pass on a digital recorder for the most part, but I hope to get a little better at this in the future.
I love the baritone ukulele. It's fairly new to me and I'm having fun tuning it in different ways. I really enjoy the way it sounds juxtaposed against the soprano and concert ukes.
You mentioned that you live part of the year in France, where do you live? I think that sounds wonderful. It's very nice to meet you.

Gretchen said… - Hey Ann-
I'm new to uke though thoroughly infected by the bug.
It's great you've been playing so long!
Indeed you're not alone...there is a thriving subculture, as I've discovered.
Cheers across four strings,
-- Gretchen
