Fact Or Funny
This week we decided to go with a Fact: Let's look at the History of the Ukulele.
Most people assume that the Ukulele originated in Hawaii, which is kind of half-true. It actually travelled to Hawaii from Portugal, by way of three cabinetmakers named Augusto, Manuel and Jose, who went there looking for work. They took their favourite local instrument, the Machete da Braga, and began building similar models in their new Hawaiian home. They called it the Ukulele, and it caught the eye of King Kalakua, which immediately made it the most popular instrument on the islands.
Today the Ukulele embodies everything tropical, and is a favourite instrument here in South East Queensland, and all around the world. If you want some more info on this fascinating story, click here.
