The ‘Mighty Uke’ is a small stringed, wooden acoustic instrument, whose name translates loosely to “jumping flea.” The ukulele is experiencing a resurgence in popularity with musicians of all ages for its approachability. With a similar shape as a small acoustic guitar, the ukulele has four strings that are tuned like the guitar. The ukelele is a great introduction to stringed instruments for young children with smaller hands, but can be enjoyed by all. Most closely associated with Hawaiian and Portuguese music, the ukulele can be adapted for any genre.
