Readers of Mindful Heart are well aware of my increasing fondness for the ukulele. I know the ukulele to be a simple and humble instrument perfect to put into the hands of young children who want to make their first music. That's what I'm doing every day at work.
It's also a great instrument for groups of amateurs to play together. I spend most Thursday evenings playing with friends. That's what I did last night. We get high just singing.
But the ukulele can be even more than that.
She has a wild, exotic side as well.
Grab a pair of headphones. Set aside six minutes.
You won't want to be interrupted:

I loved it!
DEEPLY cool!
Brenda, thanks! I'm glad you liked it.
Reya, I think so, too. Taimone's not all that old, about 20, and she's really got some charisma. You can see her at age 13 on my Mr. Kindergarten post for March 19
Music and dancing so sensuous! I thought of the tango, but then I remembered the Alphabet Dance: the rhythm is what matters. Taimone is so exotic yet graceful. Love the added touch of the ruby in her Third Eye! Thanks, Dan--mesmerizing!
Hi, Margaret. I'm glad you enjoyed it. I was impressed by the whole performance. Playing a little bit of ukulele, I was amazed by how skillful her playing
Carmen is always hot! I want that hat!
Wow !
Hi, Tess. I'll bet you find a hat like that one. I'd like her uke.
Sabio, she's pretty great, huh? She's only about 20 and already an accomplished performer. What a Waldorf education can do.
What style, what charisma, what talent! Combining Bach, Bizet, and Webber is genius.
Brava, Taimane! Standing O!
Jo, I wonder if she had help putting the music together. Great performance on the ukulele, though, that's for sure.
