**The popular instument, which has become synonymous
with Hawaii, was introduced by the Portuguese immigrants
who arrived in the islands in the late 1870s. The Hawaiians
were so impressed by the speed which the musicians' fingers
moved in the keyboard they began calling the instrument
ukulele - roughly translated as "jumping fleas."
The ukulele's popularity has spread worldwide.
In fact, the world's great players gather in Honolulu
every year to participate in the annual Ukulele Festival.
Very portable and relatively easy to learn to play, the
ukulele is a wonderful gift for the aspiring musician
in your family.
