This is a perfect example of Music and Art in public spaces. I love to share great things that occur anytime subway musicians are featured. Here's a wonderfully executed video clip by film maker Chris Shimojima of subway performers stationed in nine different locations synced by wi-fi and conducted live in Bryant Park by composer LJOVA. Amazing.
Listen to the studio recording
composed and conducted by LJOVA
directed by CHRIS SHIMOJIMA
produced by ANITA ANTHONJ
I am happy to know many of these musicians. We are so lucky to have such talent performing in the stations and public spaces of NYC.
