Fly Me to the Moon in 2 guitars

Thursday, November 29, 2007

Watch Zack Kim playing Bart Howard's "Fly Me to the Moon" in his 2 electric guitars.



This song was written in 1954 under the title "In Other Words". A few years later the title was changed to "Fly Me to the Moon". Its most famous performance is a Frank Sinatra's studio recording. Sinatra recorded "Fly Me to the Moon" in 1964 on his album "It Might as Well Be Swing" accompanied by the Count Basie Orchestra.

Here Zack Kim uses the guitar tapping technique. I cannot name it just left-hand tapping technique because he does it with both hands! Each hand tapes (the fingers stop the notes in a hammer-on slur manner) its own electric guitar.

Of course, I don't give him merit just for the show he makes on playing two electric guitars at the same time. The musical arrangements, here applied to electric guitar "duo", are nicely done as well.

Great song, great clip. This is nice for your image as a guitar player, for the rest...I think that you can do so much with one single guitar that you don't need 2 for this.
