Jingle Bells - Fingerstyle Ukulele
Performance notes
Overall use the right hand fingering, the bluegrass approach, we learned here:
Measure 1 & measure 5
Let the first 5 notes all ring. To play the 16th notes, use your thumb for the first note and first finger for the second.
Measure 11
Alternate your 1st and 2nd finger to play the notes on the 1st string.
1st finger: Strum the chord, down strum
2nd finger: Play the first single note
1st finger: Play the second single note
Watch the timing here, you had a dotted note and next a 16th note
1st finger: Strum the chord, down strum
2nd finger: Play the single note
Here's how you play the last two of 16th note chords
1st finger: Strum the chord, down strum
1st finger: Strum the chord, up strum
