Three-Note Samba is the eighth lesson from the Strumming Through The Americas ukulele course. Continuing the journey through the Americas to discover more music, students will arrive in Brazil to learn about samba music. Building on the experience with the three melody notes used in “Three-Note Calypso”, students will employ these notes again in a variation to learn the melody for the new song, “Three-Note Samba”. Students will also learn a chord accompaniment part which features a new strumming pattern, and practice incorporating dynamics to shape the music. This lesson will culminate in a performance of the song featuring both parts. This video is part of S'Cool Sounds free online courses.
