Legacy Ukulele Ensemble

The Legacy Ukulele Ensemble is a group of adult players from across the United States and Canada who are directed and led by internationally acclaimed ukulele teacher, Peter Luongo. The ensemble is committed to learning/developing their music literacy and ukulele playing skills with the goal of performing and sharing their music with audiences.  

The group’s participants live in various cities throughout the U.S. and Canada and are committed to meeting regularly on-line or in person in various strategic geographic locations for their learning sessions. During these 3 to 4-day sessions the members work intensively on refining and adding to their repertoire list (currently 40+ pieces and continually growing) where each session culminates with at least one public performance for various ukulele communities/organizations.  Follow up resources (videos and supporting materials) are sent for the members to use as they rehearse between sessions and individuals rely on regular on-line support to assist them. The group's repertoire list includes music from the genres of Hawaiian, Classical, Folk, Rock, and Country, all of which are performed from memory on stage. Yes, you read that right…..everything is memorized and there is not a music stand in sight.  The Legacy Ukulele Ensemble’s mandate is to model life-long learning! The members are committed to developing their music-literacy and musicianship while learning to play the ukulele and developing their choral singing and close harmony skills. They hope to inspire adults to embrace life-long learning as they continue to evolve as musicians and performers.  Simply put, you are never too old to be a musician!
