Ukulele Theory Simplified - A Practical Guide to Music Theory for Ukulele Players

Ukulele Theory Simplified is a 118-page visual guide designed for beginners, self-taught players, and adults learning at their own pace. Whether you're using online lessons or learning independently, this book gives you a clear, step-by-step approach to understanding and applying music theory on the ukulele.

Built specifically for soprano, concert, and tenor ukuleles with reentrant tuning, this book includes visual explanations, cheat sheets, and diagrams that simplify essential theory concepts for ukulele players. It's ideal for anyone looking to understand chords, scales, harmony, progressions, and rhythm without getting overwhelmed.

Inside, you'll explore nine key chapters:

The 12-note system, note names, and how they apply to ukulele Ukulele string layout and fretboard navigation (read more about ukulele string notes here) Major, minor, pentatonic, and modal scales Intervals and how chords are built Common chord progressions using Roman numerals Music notation, ukulele tabs, and note values Rhythm, time signatures, and meter The Circle of Fifths explained in a ukulele context

Each section includes simple visuals, practical explanations, and QR codes that link to short video lessons showing you how each concept works on the ukulele. You'll learn how to play and build chords, find notes on the fretboard, and recognize key relationships to enhance your playing and songwriting.

Whether you're just starting out or refining your skills, Ukulele Theory Simplified helps you connect the dots between theory and practice in a way that's tailored to the ukulele - not just adapted from guitar or piano.
