Zsolt Schäfer

Web Administration and Customer Support

Zsolt grew up in a small town in Hungary. He and his sister owned two LPs of great kids’ music, but otherwise had to settle for their Dad’s classical rock collection (ultimately, classical rock contributed to discovering the ukulele — in the form of a Queen cover song). They also had a decade of exposure to the Kodály-method used by public schools throughout Hungary. After a short harmonica career and an ever shorter stint in a 17th-century drum corps he started to learn ukulele. Zsolt is very fond of old-time American music and clawhammer-style playing.

Zsolt is a Level 2 JHUI-certified Teacher. He runs one of the few ukulele clubs in Hungary, teaches ukulele to elementary school children. He is also author of Ukulele, mindenki együtt! (the Hungarian supplementary book for Ukulele in the Classroom) and of Ukulele Funbook.
