Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain

“The best musical entertainment in the country.” The Independent (U.K.)

“Instrumental panache and affable singing with no small amount of inimitably British drollery.” The New York Times

Four decades (and 400,000,000 plucks) since its founding, the Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain continues to thrill audiences with off-beat humor and four-stringed virtuosity. With no drums, pianos, backing tracks, guitars, pitch shifters or electronic trickery, each performance is an astonishing revelation of the rich palette of orchestration afforded by ukuleles, fulsome vocals and a bit of whistling. Celebrate the 40th anniversary of this much-loved institution with a quirky, irreverent, white-knuckle shopping-trolley dash through every kind of musical genre.
