A Music Reading Program for Ukulele - A Student's Book by J. Marvin Shields.
48 pages. This ukulele book is designed to develop sight reading skills and an understanding of the many basic musical concepts. The ensemble activities appearing throughout the book are fun to play and make use of the skills/concepts learned to that point in the program. There are very few explanations given so is best used in a classroom/instructional setting and is not recommended for use in a self-study format.
