Local business Musikhaus Taunus will be attempting to break the German record for the number of Ukulele players playing together in one place.

The current record stands at 155.

Throughout the week visitors will be able to buy the instruments at the Musikhaus Taunus stand on the Hessentagsstraße and before the record attempt itself.  The chords for the song “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” will be taught on the day, so no previous experience is necessary.

The record attempt will take place on Saturday, 18th June, 2011 at 3pm on the Musikhaus Taunus stage  next to the U-Bahn station “Altstadt” (previously known as “Portstraße”.)
