Styles may come and go, but good music will weave its ageless magic no matter what the current fad. Ulli Bögershausen is a guitar wizard with a truly remarkable craft at his command. He possesses a gift for making time stand still.
Michael Lohr
His playing has been called “breathtaking in its intertwined harmonies and its unfailing timing”, his performances have been considered “as if from a fairy tale”, and his albums have been regarded as models of “sensitive string wizardry” and of “guitar music for the 21st century”.
Steeped in the tradition of the folk guitar, but constantly refined by his classical studies, Bögershausen’s playing continues to leave the audience with the best of both worlds. A breezy lightness pervades everything, tastefully balanced by an almost classical sense of formal depth and compositional coherence.
In his mostly balladlike original compositions, Ulli Bögershausen never seems to run out of surprising and intriguing melodic inventiveness.
After receiving over 10 million views collectively for his Youtube videos Ulli’s compositions and arrangements are played by many guitarists all over the world. Besides that Ulli Boegershausen is one of the most streamed guitarists on Spotify.
Ulli Boegershausen no longer needs to be introduced. The man is practically a synonym for subtle acoustic guitar music.
