Kind of sloppy, but what do you want for a hallway jam...

Awesome! I love strings, so much drama

Around here we've got a few guys banging on plastic buckets for change or the occasional guitar player outside of the station, but not inside. The new guy in charge wants to change all that.

We'll see what happens.

Years ago, at this small community college I attended, I was wandering through the fine arts building looking to see who might be hanging around. Dino, the director of all the school's music programs, comes jogging down the hall looking slightly panicked. He sees me, says "Matt! Tell me you're not doing anything for the rest of the day! You can really help me out!"
"Uhh, ok, sure. What's going on?"
"I need you to join the string quartet for the play tonight."
"Dino...You know I play trombone, right?"
"Yes! Don't worry, we'll make it work. You can do it, and it'll get us out of a bind. Please?"
"What the hell. Sure."

A few hours later I'm wearing tights, a ruffly shirt (blouse?), and a long white wig, playing the viola part of selected Mozart compositions on my trombone while the intermission crowd from a production of Amadeus mills around on all sides. I had had precisely two rehearsals in which to learn to read alto clef and blend my horn's tone with some very mellow strings. Actually got a few compliments on the sound.
Anyway, the clip reminded me of that.

Way cool! I love public performances, but have NEVER seen the likes of the quantity/quality here.

Still not as entertaining as the crystalheads trying to out-shout each other for 'spare' change in NYC.
