Travel Post #7: GFF part 2: The Old Man
I’m always trying to find old men playing any kind of instrument. I don’t like it when people can sing too well, when their voices can handle any note with ease. Playing traditional music makes some people work…they can’t change the notes around to fit their range.
There were about fifty people onstage when this guy played. Various people would play together during the set, and sometimes the entire orchestra. Then there were a few two minute solo songs. This guy came forward, did his thing, and then rejoined the line, like it was no big deal.
This is probably it for the traditional music posts for awhile…I am currently in Turkey which abounds with interesting street noise.
The lucky charm of an Albanian bus driver.
