Dear Friends,
Ever seen a musician or a group of cool singers on the street playing to an enormous crowd? All over the world people gather audiences and share music in their own way. Now it’s your turn – this project is packed with ideas of how to create, design, rehearse, and star in a musical routine that will draw a crowd and entertain. Working in groups it’s your opportunity to be a street performing star…or as we like to say in England a busker! Happy Busking!
