That's a fun little tune played with a bit of verve. Any idea of the tune's name in english, or even what country it comes from?
Sounds like its in D harmonic minor scale, which might be playable on a D/G box with accidentals and the bass thirds out. Although it would be nice to have an F bass note for the bass run. Wouldn't be too hard to write out the dots but what are the chances of finding the sheet music on the web already.

Found this via google: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QVS8F_CN-UI  - surely someone's taking the micky!

Sez on the screen "Kresnany" which would seem to be a suburb of Bratislava. As for ethnicity - here's what Google churns out when I press the "Czech" button

   Slovaks very big fan. Mladejch there so many plays. In Bohemia, so we do not.
   Rather, most of them in the hub sputters and says it Emerick beatbox.   :-\

.. suggesting he is from wider Czechoslovakia.  Bohemia is basically the bit toward Germany now Czech republic. Or you could read it as him coming from  Slovakia (under Poland). The Kresnany reference would perhaps support that.  Ethnically, who knows? They have Czechs, Slovaks, Germans, Hungarians and Carpatho-Russians, a few Jews even, rather mixed up following countless wars and empires. AFAIK all these tend to play using the "Harmonic" minor.

Any D/G Brit wanting a go would be advised to transpose into E and use the Eb accidental and B major push chords .. that's why they are there.

This guy is a natural and gifted player, but perhaps not too experienced with his microphone technique! - I loved the sound engineer's intervention at around 0.29!

The tune's name is "Jaj Zuzka, Zuzička". It's in Slovak and can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLB4Cf6AvP0
