The Busker Symphony - Finale

Performed by 100 genuine buskers in many locations on the streets of London. Many of the buskers featured here were spotted on the streets by director/composer Benjamin Till. Their individual orchestral lines were in many cases recorded separately and blended together to build the rich orchestral sound. Benjamin would love the opportunity to make a similar film in New York, and a major film featuring buskers all over the world. See www.thebuskersymphony.com for more information.

Very beautiful. I felt very moved by this amazing work.

[Benjamintill]

Thanks.

How on earth did you find this piece over there in Canada?!

[daenuvo]

I busk myself (magician, juggler) and just searched Busker.

[Benjamintill]

brilliant. I thought they called it "street performing" that side of the pond?

I'd love to do this piece on a worldwide scale... So spread the word!!

Nice work, Ben. Clever idea, excellently executed. How on earth did you manage to get so many people to collaborate on it?! Alex.

Thanks Alex,

Took a LOT of hard work by a lot of people to get everyone coordinated...

Glad you liked it. Hope you're well
