Celebrating 50 Years of a Successful Method and Model for Ukulele Instruction in the Classroom

This interactive session will explore the enduring efficacy of J. Chalmers Doane’s music education program, which featured the ukulele in the 1970s. This method was developed and shared across Canada and, in recent years, has been updated by James Hill and is now offered globally. Classroom music teachers, community music educators, leaders of student and adult ukulele ensembles, aspiring ukulele players, and music program coordinators will benefit from learning and experiencing the aspects of Doane’s ukulele method. Ukuleles provided by Kala Brand Music Co.
