It's great to see guitarists finally discovering just how well asian music sounds on the instrument. As a composer-guitarist myself I find I derive more inspiration from Chinese music than from any other ethnic style. It's also fascinating how similar it can sometimes sound to Irish music. Two such different cultures united by a common view of what is beautiful. One could easily wax philosophical about the universiality of human experience etc.
I have died and been reborn. This was the most greatest and most beautifulest guitar playing I have ever heard in my life. You are my new Guitar Role Model. It is such a great honor listening to this and I will become that good and I will practice everyday for 12 hours a day ^_^. I am going to watch more video's for better inspiration and again that was beautiful and amazing. -Keaton
God bless you just loved the way you play the words you wanna speak you speak in terms of melodious notes really hypnotysing playing just loved it . God bless you
Ulli, not only do you play really great, but I reckon you are a nice guy too. You have certainly encouraged me to do better and not just accept OK guitar if you like. A friend of mine said to me (and he plays guitar) you will never reach the standard of Ulli at your age (56) and that maybe true but I want to try to at least to play some of your tunes. Anyway, if truth be known, he doesn't play too well in my opinion. Anyways, love the music, thank you. Kevin
im amazed SIR harmony,nirwana for my ears all songs not just this ( macedonia is listening YOU ) i'm sending link to all my friends hope you will read this tnx
a simple translation of part of the original song's lyric: over there in a distant land, lives a beautiful girl everyone stops and praises when they pass by her side her pink cheek looks like the sun in the sky and her lovely eyes just look like the moon at night sorry for the bad translation. just for those who is curious about the original song
Thank you! I've loved this tune since I first discovered Ulli. I often wondered if someone who knew the original Chinese version would give this a thumbs up.
Greetings, Mr. Boegershausen I am posting on behalf of all of my guitar students (5 milion) who are all willing to learn to play this song on the guitar, whatever it takes. We are willing to spend 1 dollar each to get just 1 copy of the tableture for "A Distant Land." I can email every person individually to pass on the tableture and give them the instructions for tranfering the 1 dollar on to your bank account. If you prefer 5 million postages, that can also be arranged. Thanks in advance, P
some people keep saying sungha is better. i like sungha alot but he doesn't tab music with his own ears, he uses other peoples interpretations of music so i believe that ulli is better.
In a faraway fairyland, there is a fairy girl. Everybody who pass by her tent will go back and just linger around there. She gets pink-cheek face with her smile like a sun and her eyes are charming and pretty like a moon that's shinning in the midnight. and her eyes are charming and pretty like a moon that's shinning in the midnight. I would give up my property and go to graze with her, looking at her face with a smile and her dress with golden-lace works. I'd come to her tiny land running by her side.

Wunderschön, ein stück wo man die gedanken schweifen lassen kann und das weite land china's vor sich sieht!

a simple translation of part of the original song's lyric:
over there in a distant land, lives a beautiful girl
everyone stops and praises when they pass by her side
her pink cheek looks like the sun in the sky
and her lovely eyes just look like the moon at night
sorry for the bad translation. just for those who is curious about the original song

Ulli is really good. How about collaboration with Esteban?

This is only standard with higher 2 fret capo. Nice arrangement.
