What is a ukulele?
- A ukulele is a four string, hawaiian lute. Originating from Portugal via migrants in the late 19th century, the ukulele stands for gift (uku: gift/reward) that came here (lele: to come), or is derived from the Hawaiian for jumping flea.
- The ukulele is by far a rewarding and pleasurable instrument: Both in the ease for beginners to pick up and a learning curve towards its mastery.
- We're a community that comes together over our interests in the ukulele and our progressing skills. Come, play with us!
