Lyle Ritz – Lyle’s Style
Ukulele jazz master Lyle Ritz shares decades of musical history, invaluable playing techniques and great performances of classic songs. His lesson will thrill learning uke players as he details the chord shapes, ideas and tricks that he has developed over a lifetime of performing.
Lyle initially runs through a slow-paced version of each song, stopping to review specific techniques employed in the arrangement: rips, parallels, bent notes, fills, falls, slides, slurs, rogue chords and deceptive resolutions.
He and bassist Stephen Roane then play the song again at normal tempo so you can follow along on your own instrument.
You’ll learn a ukulele master’s versions of Avalon, Beautiful Dreamer, Brahms’ Lullaby, Let Me Call You Sweetheart, My Melancholy Baby, Shine On Harvest Moon and the Ritz original, Bb Blues in C. The lyrics, melody line and ukulele chord grids are included as printable PDF files encoded in the disc.
Bonus: A career retrospective interview with Lyle conducted by Jim Beloff, and a duet with daughter Emily Ritz.
Produced by Jim Beloff for Fleamarket Music.
About Lyle Ritz:
As a highly regarded studio bassist in Los Angeles in the 1960s and 1970s, Lyle Ritz could hardly have imagined the impact of a few earlier recordings he had done using a considerably smaller four-string instrument. His two ukulele jazz recordings on the Verve label in the late 1950s, “How About Uke?” and “50th State Jazz”, were unlike anything previously recorded. Ritz will always be known as the brilliant pioneer in the area of ukulele jazz. His recordings are legendary and have inspired countless players both in Hawaii and on the mainland. Ritz returned to his ukulele roots in the mid 1980s, releasing a number of more recent recordings as well as an instructional book of his arrangements.
