Also as a part of the Choir's Ukulele group, to accompany the choir in some songs. PURCHASING A UKULELE You will need a ukulele for the class but if you do not have one, do not purchase one before starting the class. Come along and see what others have and get advice. New ukuleles can be purchased for under $35 which may or may not be suitable for you. We have 1 or 2 spare ukuleles that can be borrowed for the first few classes.
