Hi Herb love to watch and listen to buskers. I play guitar but thinking of buying a banjo nice Image.

Hi Toz. His singing and playing was excellent and the song had the most sorrowful lilt. I enjoyed this picture as it seems to demonstrate, music from the heart. - I like guitar music, especially classical, Spanish and CW styles. I think playing the banjo is quite a different style but most enjoyable too in the right hands. Glad you liked this one.
I think you know that I play the accordeon and electronic keyboard.

Cheers, Herb

It looks like "tambura" or "tambur". It is a stringed instrument that is played as a folk instrument. I know some similar tambur where in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Greece,Turkey, Croatia, North Macedonia, Serbia.

Very well capture,Herb!

Nice to see you here Füsun. A scene that you might be well familiar with in your country too. I found the music hypnotising . Thanks for the extra info re the instrument. I don't know the Tambura at all. Glad you liked it.

Regards, Herb

It seems he's doing his best :-))

He was indeed, but I don't think the crowds were very generous. ~ Herb

A lovely street shot Herb...............nicely composed and taken. I like the way he seems lost in the music with his eyes shut!

I liked that too Keith. I know that feeling when I play the accordeon , especially soft evocative melodies when I often close my eyes as I play to myself. (Everybody else have somehow vanished :)) Glad you liked it.

Cheers, Herb

A well composed street scene, Herb. HFF and an excellent weekend to you. Cheers, Joe

Thanks a lot Joe. Great that you enjoyed this one. ~ Herb

You are right.
To me I could call it the local "fado".
Sharp and emotional picture.

Indeed Jose. The music he was playing and singing had quite a different feeling to the 'fado' that i have heard in Portugal though but the sentiment was the same.
Regards, Herb

El retrato te quedó muy bien, en todo.
