Classic Buskers in concert
This concert, back in the day, was one of the best visual feasts from the perspective of a photographer.
It's a 7 minute slideshow video on our Makertube channel with some great music from two accomplished musicians, helping to break down some of the barriers raised by preconceptions of classical music with a zany sense of humour that I hope will make you smile.
Text for the video:
"The raucous humour that they bring to their performance and share with their audience is only possible from two experienced and respected classical professionals, completely at ease with their respective instruments – these range from accordion, flute, recorders through rubber chicken, kazoo etc..
The origins of this duo date back to the 70’s in Cambridge, England, where two students started busking to make some money to earn some cash. Ever since then they have been delighting audiences world-wide and shattering the prejudices of those who had considered this to be a stuffy genre.
Playing over the slideshow are their renditions of Offenbach's “Orpheus in the Underworld” and "The Ruins of Athens, Op. 113: No.4” by Beethoven (used by kind permission) from their CD entitled “Mini Classics” in a glimpse of the joys of attending one of their concerts."
