JAN AKKERMAN 'HOCUS POCUS', SOLO ACOUSTIC GUITAR 2009

At last, Jan Akkerman demystifies 'Hocus Pocus' and plays it on acoustic guitar, so that the 'ordinary' guitarist can get to grips with it. Without use of electric guitar, the tune is now laid bare, clear and accessible to all. So, grab your acoustic guitar, pull up a chair, and watch this video two (or maybe even three) times, to get a full command of this wonderful piece of music. See how Jan here sticks to use of very basic notes and runs, to ensure that most musicians can pick up the rudimentary elements without much effort. Note: Perhaps wise not to take this introduction (to an illustration of extreme virtuosity) too seriously!

Jan Akkerman performed a stunning solo acoustic guitar set to an appreciative audience at the Cultuur Centrum, Zundert, The Netherlands on Saturday, September 26th, 2009.
