"Simple Gifts" New Easy Ukulele Video Song Lesson
http://youtu.be/KXogGms6WFs Easy Ukulele Songs - How to Play Simple Gifts - 21 Songs in 6 Days: Learn Ukulele the Easy Way Here's an easy ukulele song great for beginners. It's the Shaker song "Simple Gifts", also called "It's a Gift to Be Simple". In this video you can learn to sing and strum this traditional American song with a great message for all of us. The tune was written by Joseph Brackett (1797–1882) in 1848. Brackett joined the Shakers at Gorham, Maine. Several Shaker manuscripts indicate that this is a "Dancing Song" or a "Quick Dance." "Turning" is a common Christian song theme but some people think the references to "turning" are dance instructions. The song was pretty much unknown until Aaron Copland used its melody for the score of Martha Graham's ballet Appalachian Spring, first performed in 1944. "Simple Gifts" has been adapted or arranged many times since by folksingers and composers. If you like this video, why not go ahead and click the 'like' button?
