Learn about the ukulele family tree at Strings that Zing

Mar 6, 2017

Strings That Zing: The Ukulele Family Tree is for interested listeners of all ages.

Visit the Mattapoisett Library on Sunday, March 26, from 2-3 p.m., to learn about and hear the mighty mite of the musical world – the ukulele – and the many “cousins” that make up the extended ukelele family, including the Hawaiian guitar.

Tom Goux, local singer and instrumentalist, will share songs from his lifelong collection that typify how the uke and related instruments have been enjoyed over the last century. Goux will invite interested listeners to hold/strum/pet the ukes he is bringing. The library is located at 7 Barstow St. and is handicapped accessible.
