Have you always wondered how they do that? Herb Ohta, Jr will share the secrets behind arpeggios (picking patterns) and Hawaiian turnarounds! Ideal for those that are looking for a more traditional Hawaiian sound! Materials are included with the cost of the class.

*The workshop is geared towards all levels.

Herb Ohta's interest in music was evident at an early age: his grandmother taught him his first song on the 'ukulele ("Happy Birthday") at the age of three, and his father, 'ukulele legend Ohta-San, started his early instruction; he hasn't looked back since. One of Hawai'i's finest contemporary 'ukulele virtuosos, Herb has a graceful "nahenahe" style that's both reminiscent of his father, and recognizable as his very own. Herb teaches six days a week at Sonny D's 'Ukulele Shop in Waipahu, O'ahu, and Harry's Music Store in Kaimuki, O'ahu, while also finding time to compose new material, perform, and record extensively (he's a seven-time Na Hoku Hanohano Award Nominee and a two-time Hawai'i Music Award Winner). As a teacher, composer, recording artist, entertainer, and producer, it is Herb's goal to share the beauty of Hawai'i's music, its culture, and the 'ukulele with people all over the world.
