On Busking

I’ve been busking since the beginning of August. I played solo at the Franklin Ave C stop, made $1, and joined forces with violinist Adam Von Housen in Duo Phoenix. We’ve hit Jay Street Metrotech, Broadway/Lafayette, Times Square and Columbus Circle so far. Next week we’ll hit Atlantic Ave Barclays by the LIRR at the morning commute.

For me, it’s like public practicing. I play Bach, French music, a piece by my friend Anne Goldberg...basically a recital’s worth of rep before Adam joins me. We love Boismortier, Telemann, and CPE/WF Bach so far. We’ll be expanding our rep in the coming weeks. Have a flute/violin duo of your own? Send it over!
