Sage Wisdom

"Good improvisation communicates harmonic progression melodically. Effective melodies manipulate harmonic content through the use of guide tones and preparatory gravity notes, masterfully woven in systematic tension, release, and transparent harmonic definition."

March 2, 2006 | Jake Uke

Doing things with an instrument nobody ever dreamed of before. Jake Shimabukuro is one of those pioneers, and though his ax is not a mandolin, his creative Ukulele playing is an inspiration and a beacon of light for those who dare to defy convention. We had the privilege of witnessing Jake and veteran string superpowers, Mike Marshall (Mandolin, Mandocello, Guitar) and Darol Anger (Violin, "Chin-cello") in our hometown. Truly a taste of eclectic acoustic heaven!

The trio wowed all witnesses, creating a virtual symphony of music with only three small wooden instruments.
