What groups do we offer?
- Ukulele Orchestra – Saturdays from 5:45pm – 7.30pm
Who can join the groups?
Beginners and more experienced musicians are welcome to all groups. The ukulele orchestra and choir are 18+ only.
What do we get up to in the sessions?
One of the main goals of all groups is to build up a repertoire of songs that we love. Usually a song is selected and agreed upon as a group and then the tutor, takes that away and makes an arrangement. The arrangements will include several different parts that come together to mimic the instruments and vocal on the original song. The group is a great chance to just relax and socialise with like-minded people whilst also learning new skills.
Is this group right for me?
We totally appreciate sometimes it’s hard to tell if something is going to be fun and a good fit for you just from a few paragraphs and pictures! You need to experience it! For this reason we encourage you to come down for a free first session and then we can have a chat about signing up if you enjoyed it.
Ukulele Orchestra Testimonials
The Ukulele Group is fab, Finn’s teaching style is great and the members are lovely and very welcoming. The arrangements of the songs are fun to learn and play (much better than the original songs in my opinion). I love learning the different parts (melody, harmony and chords), I’ve learnt loads of uke techniques and I feel my playing has greatly improved since I joined. I’d highly recommend this group.”

I love going along to Finn’s ukulele group lesson. His arrangements are brilliant, and always sound beautiful. He is a patient teacher, which helps me to not panic with written instructions. I would recommend this group!
