Yankee Doodle Review: Excellent, thoughtfully organized baritone ukulele songbook - I am just learning to play baritone ukulele. I already play piano, so while the fundamentals of music are not new to me, the ukulele is. This book is so well organized that even without a single formal ukulele lesson, I was able to play the first song I tried, both picking and strumming—my playing was far from perfection, but the tune was at least recognizable. I love the variety of songs included and am absolutely thrilled with this purchase. This is a great collection of classic songs arranged specifically for baritone ukulele. Each song includes a standard treble‑clef melody line with lyrics for the first verse, a matching tablature staff, and chord names written above the staff for easy strumming. Additional verses are printed in full under the music, and at the bottom of the page there are clear chord diagrams for every chord used in that song, so you don’t have to flip to another section or another book to look them up. At the back of the book there are very useful reference pages: how to read chord diagrams, tuning the baritone ukulele, and multiple strumming and picking pattern diagrams (10 strumming patterns for 4/4, 4 for 3/4, 1 for 2/4, and 1 for 6/8; plus 10 picking patterns for 4/4, 10 for 3/4, 5 for 2/4, and 4 for 6/8). The book also includes diagrams for 45 basic baritone ukulele chords. Overall, it’s an excellent resource for beginners and advancing players who want both songs and practical reference material in one place. Review: Amazing Song Selection - Easy to Follow - This book is amazing. Song selection, the way it is organized, easy to follow for beginners. Highly recommend.

Old style but very simple
I am a player who has a very poor memory, making it challenging for me to play an instrument with more than four strings, or a song with more than a few chords. These may not be the coolest songs in the world (some humorously dated), but this book comes correct to represent a nice slice of the songs most considered folk standards. There are enough themed songs here for a kid or reasonable ambition to create their own Christmas presentation for their immediate family in the living room. If you want to do that, and you have a baritone ukelele, this book will give you I think around five songs like that or ones with similar religious themes. There are equally as many in Irish themes, for your old school bar sing-along type classics. You will also find just a couple which slipped from old school into a the rock cannon, including Scarborough Fair and House of the Rising Sun. I am here to tell you that I am a very poor player of very little ambition with this instrument, and I am totally capable of playing every one of these songs that I have tried so far. This is an encouraging book if you love the baritone ukelele but you don't necessarily have a knack for it. This has the diagrams of the chords on the same page as each song. That's really all that any of us really need, right?

Easy enough for a beginner. Nice assortment of songs.
I bought this book to have a handy resource for my Blueridge BR-40T Tenor guitar. It has been very handy to help with giving me easy arrangements, chord diagrams, and TAB for a nice assortment of familiar songs. I am an advanced beginner guitarist and started gcea tuned ukulele in March, so the DGBE tuning for my tenor guitar isn’t wholly unfamiliar. That being said having a book has given me a great starting point to be able to play around and become familiar with my instrument as I learn theory from other resources. I highly recommend for the recreational player like myself who wants chords and TaB to be able to quickly start playing! I originally gave 4 stars because there are some typos in the lyrics and a few omitted chord diagrams (the chord is written into the song but not diagramed on the song page with the others), but the value of what I did get in this book out weighs the omissions. Hopefully the editor or author will catch and correct them in a future edition. I would love to see additional books in this style, price point and for this tuning offered!

More challenging setup book
This is my second book. Just started working on. Songs are old fashioned but fun. Would have liked to have seen strumming patterns for each song.

100 titres en anglais pour ukulele bariton
100 chansons anglo-saxonnes avec paroles et accords, super ! Par contre attention aux novices qui voudraient s'initier à l'ukulélé via ce recueil : les accords sont pour un ukulele bariton, donc a transcrire si vous avec un soprano, concert ou ténor.
