Class Description: This workshop for experienced ukulele players will regularly introduce new music. We will play and sing as a whole group, and also as soloists, duets, trios, and other small groups. Students are encouraged to suggest songs to learn. Each student is expected to own and bring to class a copy of The Ultimate Ukulele Fakebook (ISBN: 9781495070402). Additionally, students must provide their own ukulele, tuner, and tabletop music stand. It is expected that students have completed the OLLI at UNLV Ukulele for Beginners class, or have had equivalent private instruction and familiarity with their instrument.

Instructor Biographies: Niels Clyde has been a student of several disciplines of spiritual principles for many years. His interest in ancient sages and their teachings has enabled him to facilitate several study groups. OLLI at UNLV has provided a unique opportunity for Clyde to share his experience in a multimedia environment. Carol Wagers moved to Nevada in 1964 and spent her early years here working at Jackass Flats, now called Yucca Mountain. Before retiring from CCSD, Wagers taught business classes, history, and was a guidance counselor. A life-long musician, Wagers has played piano since age 5. She is also proficient on organ, working as a church organist for many years and playing keyboard in a Christian rock group for 10 years. In 2007 she bought a ukulele and taught herself to play it. She has been teaching the Ukulele for Beginners and Ukulele Workshop classes at OLLI at UNLV since 2013.
