Street performance of "Fur Elise" with a guitar and beatbox is mind-blowing

(CBS) - Chances are that you're familiar with Beethoven's "Fur Elise" (or would immediately recognize it if you heard it). But have you ever heard it played on classical guitar? Okay, maybe, maybe not. How about on classical guitar with a beatbox rhythm? I bet I got you on that, so watch and prepare be amazed.  The beat really hits hard at about 38 seconds.

The artist in question is one Los Angeles-based Zack Andrew who definitely has an amazing gift and phenomenal style to his classical rendition. So why is he performing on the streets? That's not rhetorical, I'm honestly curious on the why with such obvious talent.

I'm including another performance by Andrew below, who is definitely our triple-rainbow salute of the day winner (yeah, that's right), and if you'd like to check out more of his work you can go to his website by clicking here.
