Chicago, IL, 15 April 2008. Many people knew at the start of Fox TV’s hit series American Idol on April 9th, that Jason Castro could play guitar & drums. Imagine their surprise when Jason appeared playing a ukulele on “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”! That ukulele was an Oscar Schmidt OU5, one of our top selling models.

The OU5 features a Hawaiian Koa top, back & sides, Abalone top inlay, a Rosewood fingerboard and bridge and Grover tuners and retails for $209.90.

With WeImprovise! I set out to build a different kind of promotion & discovery platform — supportive, expansive, & inclusive, for music, musicians (students, performers, educators, & researchers), and the wide-ranging industry that supports music worldwide.

The focus is jazz, blues, & roots-folk-world music — incidentally the music that feeds pop & rock creativity — along with the inclusion of cultural & sociological aspects without which the music cannot truly be engaged with.

What you see is the beginning, a proof of concept to demonstrate possibilities and inspire ideas.
