EGY'S Musical Notes

A friend sent this to me. I thought you might be interested that the "Ukulele" can play other types of music other than the "Hawaiian Kine". Originally from Portugal, the "Hawaiian Ukulele" is more formally known as the Braginho or Cavaquinhos. I've also posted a link if you are interested in the history of the Ukulele. 
Aloha, Emmett

Thanks for posting this unusual, creative musical performance. Every Thursday, Linda and I attend the Ukulele Society of America meetings where we strum along with a group which includes hula dancers.

Thank you for sharing! my daughter and I have found a new interest to share which is simple and easy to learn on our own yet very fulfilling as we learn entire songs together! Love it's simple and enjoyable tone!
