When we heard (nearly a year ago) that Jake Shimabukuro would be presenting at TED Talks we didn’t know that we’d have to wait this long to actually see his performance. But it was worth the wait. The recently released video proves once again that the possibilities for the ‘ukulele are almost endless. Case in point: Jake plays Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. It’s worth a peek at the video just to hear the audience laugh when he announces what he’ll be playing. They seemed to think he was kidding…
Love this! It’s beautiful!
If you want to be in on the hot new trend in music, get an ukulele. My store sold almost as many ukes last year as we did steel string guitars.
