If I were God.. Id grant those who play this eternal life...

Or something like that.
MY middle daughter is a violinist and has recently gotten into electric violin. I swear... some of the songs they immediately hit me in the soul somehow.. a strange feeling. This is an amazing instrument. WHen Jim Morrison of the Doors was talking about the future of music.. THIS is what he meant as far as electronics and computers. I happen to like street performers.. all kinds. Raw talent from the gut rather than polished professionalism most of the time.
Just wanted to share for those who may love it.
















This guy goes off on a celtic electric violin tune

spoony bards! just the right kind to invite on an adventure.

really nice. so much talent.

i like this harp player and her voice is nice too.
she didn't have the best recording equipment in the video


this is an example of street music, where he's basically the entire band
it just keeps getting bigger and bigger

Violin is one of my favorite sounds as well...

Hang drums are awesome too:

reply to post by Murgatroid


those are nice to listen to.
mellow.

Oh wow.. the harp!! Wonderful.

Hand drums, Ive always thought they were mood altering. Depending on how they are played of course.. LOL!

More street performers.. just awesome raw talent. See, the husband is playing poker... and Im viewing youtube street performers while he loses a barrel of change. LOL!


The first thing I thought of was an older castrato when I heard this.. made me wonder.


What a funny sound.. I like it!



I cant hardly bear bagpipes, but...



Now THIS is amazing! Yes, real men to wear skirts.. erm.. kilts. When we were living in London I met a very few Scots.. and if I had to choose ONE group of people that absolutely fascinate me, it would be the Scots.

Daniel Waples is absolutely amazing, pure magic...

This dude is just jammin' on his UFO having a good time...

Wow, I'm stunned. This thread set my soul SOARING. Thank you.

I love street performers, too. I made a mini-doc of my street-performer sisters and brothers from Ybor City in Tampa. I have it somewhere...at least I hope I still do. Gonna try and find it after watching these. Thanks again for sharing...Incredible!
