I guess most of you will know Ernest Ka'ai's work through the magnific Famous Solos & Duets for the Ukulele by John King, which recovers most of the pieces published by Ka'ai's in his books from 1910 and 1916.
Originally written for reentrant tuned ukulele –that is, ukulele– I found this treasure compositions to be greatly useful to teach/learn some of the classical guitar techniques applied to the ukulele, such as index and middle finger alternation for plucking, position shifts, and so on.
I've rearranged, then, some of those works to be played on a linearly tuned ukulele. Here are the first two that I've recorded. Tabs are freely available following the links in their YouTube descriptions.
