This collection of ukulele duets was originally intended for young people. I wrote the ten pieces in quick succession and definitely had children in mind. After a while, I realized that these could be useful and enjoyable to players of all ages seeking engaging, but easy music to play with others. In keeping with making this music easy to play, I chose chord progressions that could be played with partial chords and allow players who might normally struggle with a three finger chord to replace it with a two or one finger version. It’s all about accessibility.
