Lots of New Music for Guitar and Ukulele on the Sheet Music Page

I have recently added many new songs to Sheet Music Page along with four new arrangements for Ukulele.  New song arrangements include Hawaii Aloha, Imi Au Ia Oe, Papalina Lahilahi, Uluwehi O Ke Kai, Kalena Kai, Nani Kauai, Akaka Falls, Pua Olena, Lovely Hula Hands, and Punawai from my Hoku Winning recording Slack Key Travels.  Ukulele songs include Kahealani, Haole Hula, Somewhere Over The Rainbow, and the Beatles Here Comes The Sun.

I also included a free download of a Open G Taro Patch tuning worksheet that is 3 pages long and is full of chords, vamps, scales, and song examples.  I hope you enjoy it and have fun learning.

Aloha!

Mamo CD featuring Nathan Aweau and Jeff Peterson is now available

W139

Mamo Press sheet

Mamo is the name of the duo of accomplished Hawaiian musicians Nathan Aweau and Jeff Peterson who celebrate their aloha for Hawaii and their heritage through music.  Their repertoire spans a wide range reaching as far back as the Hawaiian Monarchy to new compositions and arrangements tat are at the cutting edge of contemporary Hawaiian Music.  The album features four original compositions by Jeff Peterson and arrangements of classic Hawaiian standards shaped by the collective influences of the broad musical backgrounds of both artists.  Jazz and contemporary music blends with the traditional slack key, Hawaiian falsetto, and traditional Hawaiian percussion instruments.  Hula standards including Noho Paipai, Ulupalakua, Pau Lililehua, Papalina Lahilahi, and Makee Ailana are given fresh new interpretations.
