Ukulele Corner Blog Highlights from 2025

Throughout 2025, the Ukulele Corner blog remained a place for in-depth lessons and musical guidance. We released performance videos along with detailed performance notes for the pieces from our new Graded Repertoire for Classical Ukulele: Volume 2 book. We also released a new blues lesson from our Blues course at Ukulele Corner Academy as well as several lessons focused on teaching you to play chords on ukulele. A few representative posts from the year include:

• The Andante from Vivaldi’s Concerto for 2 Mandolins (RV 532)

  A lyrical Baroque movement adapted for ukulele, with a focus on phrasing, balance, and expressive shaping.

• Learn to Play a Blues Solo in C for Ukulele

  A style-based lesson introducing blues phrasing and rhythm, encouraging players to explore musical ideas beyond classical repertoire.

• Learn to Play the F Chord on Ukulele

  A foundational lesson breaking down one of the most commonly used chords, with attention to clean technique and musical application.
