Da-ima, Uke Safari '08

I was cleaning out my 'puter's HD and I ran across this video (which I completely forgot about). This is from Bosko & Honey's 2008 Ukulele Safari. The player's name is Da-imi from Tokyo and he's playing Ravel's "Pavane pour une infante défunte". It was arranged by for solo ukulele by Da-ima's teacher, Hideo Akiyama. It is exquisitely played and I hope you enjoy as much as I do.

Wow, thank so much for sharing Da-ima's Ravel clip. Sugoi! Love the blend of Ravel with light inflections of Japanese koto on the ukulele. It demonstrates the range and cross cultural appeal of the ukulele.

Eh . . jus fo you, girl . . . anodda favorite of mine (think Breezin') enjoy! A Hui Hou!
