Matt's Mega Ukulele Challenges!
Next challenge: At the movies!
Closing date Monday 30th September 2024
Music from the movies: For the next challenge I’ve chosen music from the movies. This could be anything from a version of a John Williams piece to a pop song from American Pie! Have loads of fun.
Don’t forget to mention Matt’s Mega Challenge in the title. There were lots of videos posted this time that I wasn’t sure if they were entries or not.
Entries close Monday 30th September. Can’t wait to hear what you come up with!
Matt’s Mega Ukulele Challenge is a fun way to get you playing regularly and having heaps of fun. Recording yourself playing is one of the very best ways to track your progress and challenge yourself to improve. Think of it almost like an online open mic, but with our wonderful supportive community cheering you on. Each few weeks I’ll set a challenge such as playing a particular themed song or showcasing a particular technique.
All levels of playing are welcome. It’s not about showing off. It’s about supporting each other to be creative, have fun and progress. Each time I’ll pick two winners. Winners won’t just be picked on ability but creativity, progress in your playing, originality and just whatever makes me smile. So even if you’re an absolute beginner who knows 3 chords you have as much chance as someone who has been playing years. All winners get a set of my button badges including a special ‘Matt Thinks I’m Ace!’ badge.
Post your videos either at my Facebook page here:
Make sure to put ‘Matt’s Mega Challenge’ and/or challenge name in the title of your post or in the comments so I know it’s an entry.
Last challenge: Festival Fever
Congratulations to winners Richard Wooller and Wayne Gordon for their winning entries this time around. I loved how much effort Richard put into his brilliant arrangement and was really touched by Wayne’s sensitive playing of my piece from the festival.
