UUU Hawaiian Ukulele Session 1 – Hawaiian Language and Vamps
In this video lesson, Aldrine teaches you about the Hawaiian language, alphabet and pronunciation to help sing these songs we all love. The Hawaiian alphabet seems intimidating, but its actually a lot easier than you think! Aldrine will also teach you about vamps, an essential part of almost every Hawaiian song.

So exciting to find we can now learn Hawaiian ukulele! This first lesson is clearly put together and easy to understand but a refreshing new area to explore. Look forward to the rest of this section unfolding. Thanks to the guys.

I have been following Aldrine since I bought my Uke’s in Hawaii last year August. I am glad I signed up for University this is so exciting and I learn so much. Thank you for having a place to learn Hawaiian Uke and All the other sessions.
Maybe when I go to my family reunion in Big Island I will have learned a song or two to play during our jam session.
