Ragtime Fingerpickin' - Baritone Wednesday (Patreon)

Today we are going to learn how to do some rag time pickin' on our Baritone Ukulele. The lesson is a Ragtime Baritone Ukulele tutorial fully tabbed out, so you've got some Scott Joplin style ukulele tabs to help you level up your fingerpicking in this old classic Americana style. We do new Baritone ukulele tutorials the first Wednesday of the month every month. This piece is inspired by the great work of Scott Joplin, Ragtime's biggest super star, and in my opinion USA's first pop musician super star (but that is much more up for debate) but it isn't a specific piece of his. The song will walk you through a bouncing bass line, a chromatic movement motif, full extended arpeggios, borrowing chords and some other very interesting flavors to add on as well. Enjoy!
