Q. The worship team at my church asked me to play the flute with them, and I'd really like to, except I don't know what to play. They don't have any sheet music for me. They gave me chord charts. Is it possible to play the flute by looking at chords? I can also play piano and guitar. The other instruments I'm playing with are guitars, piano, bass, and violin.
The piano plays off chord charts too. And they already have a violin playing just the melody. I know from experience that a flute and a violin both playing the same thing doesn't sound very good.
A. You can play along with chord charts, if you have knowledge of scales and music theory. Each chord dictates certain scales you can use to improvise parts on the flute.
If you play piano and can read chords, you could play the chords on piano and then play the arpeggios on the flute. Next, you could make up melody lines that fit with the chords given. You could always play along with the melody of the song, although if they have given you only chords to read, you will have to figure out the melody by ear.
This will be a challenge but I think it will be fun for you! Good luck!

Is it Easy to play the Uke? and is there any good online lessons?
Q. So, Me and my brother want to play the Ukulele, but i have NO idea if it is hard.
My brother has played Guitar for about 2 years.
And im a Beginner Clarinetist.
The reason i picked Clarinet, is because it was easy.
i HATE hard instruments.
I really Dread having to finger all the Chords, but im sure it will be worth it.
(: thanks so much.
A. JF,
It's as simple as you want it to be. Like anything you can do it if you want to.
First get a decent ukulele. A Lanikai LU-21 or 21C in my opinion is the best for the buck. http://www.musiciansfriend.com/navigatio⦠The 21C is a little larger than the standard soprano 21. It also has a mellower tone and wider frets, making it easier to chord.
Next some simple lessons:

Lots of lessons on Youtube:

Chord chart:

Songs: Start with simple songs you know so you don't have to memorize the tune. Simple chords!

I play my ukulele at church for worship. There are other instruments but it adds a little flavor than the regular guitar, bass, piano, and drums.
Have fun,
