Xerxes by Handel, played on the uke

[jackofall]

I cannot listen to this piece of music without my throat catching. I fiddled around with the music and made several octave changes to make it manageable. When I listened to the result, I still had the 'catch' - I probably would even if it was played on comb and bog paper. Handel knows how to write emotion into music...

Your uke posts are some of the most brilliant ever.   You are the first person I ever collabed with without your knowledge I believe. LOL   I am a fan always of your music!

Truly inspiring performance, It's so nice to see what this instrument is capable of, no limits to the Uke!
Rock on!

Thank you all so much for your encouraging comments. I really appreciate it. I've been working on more than 20 Baroque pieces for the new book. I've even managed to fit an entire Vivaldi Concerto on to 4 little strings! I will post a few more. Thanks again!

You may be the jackofall, but you've certainly mastered the uke!
