Hey guys, been a long time since I've posted anything. Haven't been playing a lot of Ukulele lately due to school.
I'm in my first semester at the University of Hawaii studying music education, and my main musical focus for the last half a year has been my major instrument, the tuba. I was wondering though, why the college of music doesn't consider the Ukulele as a major instrument. After seeing Jake and the other Ukulele greats play, it's pretty evident that the Ukulele is a "serious" instrument. There's also no shortage of Ukulele virtuosos in Hawaii lol. I also see the Ukulele being a more practical instrument than, let's say, a tuba, in a classroom environment. Feel free to discuss! I'd love to hear the UU'ers opinions!
