WEEK FOCUS #7 || CHO from KOREA
Cho "Happy Bear"
It is time for another FOCUS. This time I am heading into Asia for the profilic YouTube poster unckc. His name is Cho and he plays the baritone ukulele primarily to traditional Korean folk music. I have collected (10) of Cho's videos to show a broad selection of his music. Also included is one soprano video because Cho sings in it.
I have been hearing a lot of news about the strength of Korea's economy and the extremely high dedication to education. Students are going to schools early in the mornings before their regular school classes in order to get a solid education in their competitive marketplace.
Cho is interested in Folk Music and plays guitar, ukulele, and baritone ukulele. He has a website, and it can be partially translated from Korean, I was able to infer what would get me into older posts. Here's the link. Or if you already understand Korean all the better. Korea appears to have an active ukulele scene.
Song Playlist (to be added, see small video boxes for now)

Dobro33H || A Few Great tutorials
I came across Patrick by accident but really love his videos teaching strums on the guitar. I wanted to create a new page for STRUMS and started with a few tutorials. Patrick presents these techniques with great enthusiasm and simplicity. Most of his videos are for the banjo but there's a small selection for the guitar that I think are applicable to Bari. Patrick has nearly 5000 subscribers.
Nine Pound Hammer
I like this one too, look here. Even some of the banjo work is applicable. He moves on into guitar mode after a while.

Lew Dite || Baritone Ukulele || Vintage Folk Songster
The fun part of doing a blog on a specific instrument is that you get to see a broad range of genres performed using the same basic tool. Lew Dite archives the songs his elders taught him to love and shares them with future generations. Sometimes he calls it "porch music" which a remnant of the pre-radio days which seem centuries away.
