I've been secretly working on a collection of pieces for low fourth ukulele* (standard or baritone) and today I'd like to disclose one of these pieces for you. For such a collection, I'm trying to keep the focus in interesting music that is easy to finger while introducing different kinds of challenges.
Such as this A Sweet Fantasy, where one doesn't travel up the fretboard or twist the fingers to grip spicy chords but three voices collaborate to create a full tune.
Would you like to play this piece? My supporters on Patreon already have access to the score (and some performance tips) at https://www.patreon.com/posts/59103305/
* [Update] Such collection is now available as a book! Order your copy from https://www.theukulelebookshop.com/p/may-the-low-4th/

A new original tune for re-entrant ukulele. Kind of a come back to tears and tintinnabuli style, with a repeating triad serving as accompaniment to a melody that moves in close steps. But then, also something quite new.
Reid Hepworth kindly wrote a precious haiku to accompany the score: "ebb and flow //
a birch leaf moves // with the current".
