    That is really beautiful ; I have been following you for a little while and I do not have a ukulele yet; I just ordered an 8 string tenor, should I had ordered a 4 string instead ??

    • @LaraMarkowitzMusic
      @LaraMarkowitzMusic  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Jorge, I think it would be easier to begin learning on 4 strings and then advance to 8 strings once you've built a foundation of skills, however, there's nothing wrong with learning on 8 strings if that's what you prefer. Thanks for following and have fun getting started!

    Could you explain how to have a low g on my ukulele?
    It sounds terrible when I am trying your tutorial and I don't know how to change for low g 🙏

    • @LaraMarkowitzMusic
      @LaraMarkowitzMusic  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Mandy, to change to low G tuning you’ll need to swap out your high G string for a low G string. Make sure you purchase a low G for the correct size of your uke. It’s fairly quick to change the string. I don’t have a tutorial on how to change the string but there are plenty of videos on YT. It’s good to know how to do it as you’ll want to change all of your strings every so often 😊

    • @mandymind974
      @mandymind974 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your answer. I did some researches and decided to buy a 2nd ukulele so I dont have to change the string every time I need it 🙂👍
      Also I am really glad to discover new things about the ukulele that I didn't know before and this is thanks to you 🙏
