How to improvise beautiful melodies on the Ukulele - Learning to solo

New Ukulele tutorials every Wednesday and Saturday

Today we are going to learn how to improvise. I had to think about this one long and hard because... how do you teach people how to improvise? I don't want to give you the notes, note for note, because then well, you aren't improvising you are just playing the idea that I showed you. So, I thought about it and I thought the best way to teach you how to solo on your ukulele is to start with learn how to play resolve your ideas. If you know how to resolve your licks, you know how to finish your ideas and you can go #FromScaletoSolo no problem.

The lesson is in the key of G major/E minor and we are using the pentatonic scale. The tab will display the scale in shapes 4, 5, and 1. You can use that to solo over the entire progression which is G, Em, C and D. You can use the backing track for these ideas or simply loop a G, Em, C and D chord as well. If you have a friend that plays the ukulele, or any instrument for that matter you, you can also jam with each other where one of you plays the chord progression while the other applies the ideas learned in this video to jamming and soloing together.
