Evening Bell at Nanping Hill / 南屏晚鐘 (Ukulele Solo)

I recently posted a song about my father. Now is a memory about my mother. Evening Bell at Nanping Hill is a very popular song in Hong Kong in the late ‘50s. My mom loves this song. This is still her number one favorite today. I have heard it so many times in childhood that it became white noise to me. In recent years, I started to appreciate the song again.

Played on a Jupiter Tenor Ukulele. Tuned half step down to help ease the tension of new strings.

 
Very nice, thanks for sharing it. Interesting ukulele too.

Great tune, nice playing, and the back-story lends it touching sentiment. I also like your dog-themed ukulele!

Nice playing and makes me want to hear the original, too! Your mom must have been or will be happy to hear your rendition! :)
