A concert by the Ukulele Orchestra is an unforgettable experience. A witty, quirky, irreverent, joyful, foot-stomping combination of rock and roll and melodious light entertainment, all played on the “bonsai guitar.” Add to this a menagerie of voices, eccentric humour and post-punk energy, a wonderful night of entertainment is guaranteed.
There are no pianos, backing tracks or banjos, no pitch shifters or electronic trickery, only an astonishing revelation of the rich palette of orchestration afforded by different-sized ukuleles, vocal harmonies, and a bit of whistling. Prepare yourselves for a roller coaster ride through every musical genre. From Abba to ZZ Top, Tchaikovsky to Nirvana, whether it's soul, funk, classical, country, pop, rock, punk or folk, in the hands of the Ukulele Orchestra, musical alchemy unites and audiences are transported.
