Since some of the lower notes can not be played on the ukulele I made it into a chord melody - the chords imply the lower notes so you don't miss them and it becomes a beautiful new piece!
A usual: beautiful chords and campanella passages - taking full advantage of the uke's re-entrant tuning...
NOTES:
Take it one measure at a time - not an easy piece to play.
Measures 1 - 5: Hold chords and let notes ring.
Measure 6: Slide up to the note on the 7th fret.
Measures 9, 11, and 14: More slides.
Have fun.
