Jake Shimabukuro has singlehandedly redefined the ukulele.  In his young career he has already been declared a musical "hero" by Rolling Stone, earned comparisons to Jimi Hendrix and Miles Davis and won accolades from a host of stars.  Eddie Vedder has said that "Jake is taking the instrument to a place that I can't see anybody else catching up with."  Come learn from this ukulele wizard in a free workshop at 3:00pm at Kleinhans.  

This workshop is part of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra's Masterclass Series.  This event is FREE and open to the public.

Jake will also be preforming Byron Yasui's Ukulele Concerto (the world's first) with the BPO on Saturday, Nov. 7 at 8:00pm and Sunday, Nov. 8 at 2:30pm.  For tickets to the concerts, visit bpo.org or call (716) 885-5000.
