Thanks to UkeVal and Craig, I found and learned this pretty piece by Fernando Sor, Opus 60 No. 1. I think classical sounds great on the uke. That is when someone good plays it, not me :)

Also, if anyone can tell me how come my videos always seem to come out in the wrong format on Youtube, I would very much like to know.
Thanks
 
Excellent! I really enjoyed it!
I'm looking for easy classical pieces as well...Do you happen to have the tabs for this one?

Thanks very much for the kind comment. UkeVal pointed me towards Jamie Holding's pages where he has arranged many short pieces for the Uke.

You can find him also on youtube as JamieUkuleleArranger.

When you have worked on one, do post it on Youtube and let us know.

Hi Kitty, it worked for me too, else you could go direct to Youtube and type in Ukenick, my vid comes up as Francesco Sor Opus 60....

But thanks for taking the time.

Tucunaré, I thought that sounded great! Kudos to you on a job nicely done! Yes, I absolutely adore the sound of classical on a uke. :)

Thanks so much Itsme. Very grateful for the encouragement. I'm practicing a slightly more difficult one and my brain is steaming!
 
Maybe kitty meant the link the for Jamie Holding, coz that's not working for me either. I'll try his youtube channel.

But great job! It is really lovely to hear classical pieces on the uke.
