Whenever I watch a movie, I always remember how different real life is in that it doesn’t have underscore music. Unless, of course, you’re lucky enough to be walking in an area with street musicians. Then the atmosphere takes on a much different feeling. Depending on what song is being played, the music might inspire more fun, or happiness, or perhaps nostalgia. As a musician myself, I always feel a certain bond with street musicians I don’t’ even know. And I often make it a point to tip them and maybe even chat with them
I’m happy to share photos on Instagram which I’ve been taking of street musicians in various cities.
You can see a new photo each week at https://www.instagram.com/dgjamz/ where you’ll see a variety of people playing different instruments. Many of them will be from Lithuania which seems to be especially blessed with an abundance of street musicians. But there will be musicians from other countries as well.
What about you? Have you encountered street musicians and if so, did you enjoy it? Did it make you feel like you’re in a movie or stir some positive emotions? How would you describe that experience?
