Saturday, Oct 10, 2026
11am – 1pm
Dusty Strings 3406 Fremont Ave N
Maximum Enrollment: 16
Registration & Refund Deadline: Wednesday, October 7, 2026
We are excited to present a special guest workshop with internationally recognized ukulele artist Feng E, whose innovative approach is redefining what this instrument can do. This session offers a completely new way to approach the ukulele. Moving beyond traditional strumming, Feng E demonstrates how the instrument can function as a dynamic, multi-layered musical experience—combining melody, rhythm, and percussion all at once.
Through a combination of performance and guided instruction, students will be introduced to:
Creative approaches to rhythm and percussive playing
Fingerstyle techniques adapted from contemporary guitar styles
Ways to combine melody, harmony, and groove simultaneously
The fundamentals of improvisation and personal expression
Skills Needed: This workshop is designed to be inclusive and engaging for all experience levels:
Students with little or no background will gain exposure, inspiration, and simple entry points into music-making
Developing players will expand their technical and creative toolkit
Advanced students will be challenged with new concepts in arrangement and percussive technique
Even people who do not play an instrument will find the experience engaging and inspiring!
What to Bring: Your ukulele
Teacher: Originally from Taiwan, Feng E first gained international attention as a young ukulele prodigy, quickly building a global following through viral performances online. His breakthrough appearances on Asia's Got Talent and The Ellen DeGeneres Show introduced millions to his unique style. Since then, he has performed internationally, won major competitions, and developed a reputation as one of the most forward-thinking players of his generation.
*Most classes and workshops are geared towards late-teens and adults. Younger learners will benefit most starting with private lessons.
