  Fourteen programmes

  (10) Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain

  This all-strumming, all-singing group takes all kinds of music and puts it under the microscope of the ukulele. Between them the five men and two women play rhythm, bass, baritone, tenor, soprano and lead ukuleles, creating a rich palate of orchestration possibilities. Their programme ranges widely through pop, rock 'n' roll, punk, heavy metal, jazz and classical music all performed with generous lashings of fun and humour
