We usually call them buskers or street performers, but what they are is amazing public artists.
There is absolutely no need for admission fees, tickets, or anything else.
They just need your attention with hopes of any amount of donation so they can continue what they love doing – blessing everyone with stunning public performances.
If talking about impromptu performances in public, you should never miss the name Brendan Kavanagh.
Born in 1967 to Irish parents in North London, Brendan Kavanagh, aka DR K, diverged from his father’s aspirations of a construction career to pursue music.
Early on, he gravitated towards toy pianos and scholarly pursuits over local football games.
When and where it all started.
At seven, a discarded upright piano brought music into his life.
The personal discovery initiated formal lessons and a passion for classical music under the mentorship of Nelly Ben-or, a renowned concert pianist.
Introduced to boogie-woogie at seventeen by Jools Holland, Brendan further honed his skills under the guidance of the legendary Hammy Howell.
Despite earning degrees in English from multiple institutions and briefly teaching, disillusionment led him to critique the education system in his book ‘Toxic Teaching.’
Presently, Brendan is celebrated for his impromptu piano performances, captivating audiences worldwide with over a billion views on various social media platforms.
Brendan Kavanagh and his 2.11 million subscribers.
In one of his recent videos, Kavanagh once again wowed every passenger and passers-by alike with his jaw-dropping music.
And he’s not alone.
With him was a random yet amazing singer of her own right, a young woman named “Meg.”
The goal wasn’t just to bless the people with amazing music but to bring back neglected Christmas songs.
Meg took off her hat and she immediately sky-rocketed straight to cloud nine as soon as Kavanagh started hammering the keys.
In a foreign language, Meg belted out the lyrics of “O Holy Night.”
She’s without a doubt a soprano and her falsetto was beyond measure.
It didn’t take long before the two attracted viewers to stop by and witness the precious moment of free music.
Kavanagh and Meg then continued with both English and foreign versions of “Silent Night.”
After that, the two went for a quick chat and continued with their amazing public performance with one last Christmas song.
The two finished their public musical treat with a short interview with Kavanagh asking Meg what she aspires to be.
The latter responded by saying she wants to bring joy and happiness to other people through singing.
The video of their performance has already been viewed over 1 million times in just over 2 weeks.
That speaks volumes to how people appreciate good music and of course, the true spirit of Christmas.
“Thank you, friend, for blasting this girl into the public via a simple shopping mall video! The whole context is so appropriate for the Christmas season…surprise and delight from an unexpected source. First a humble woman in Bethlehem …holy baby in an unexpectedly simple place. Then Meg, coming out of nowhere to a most unexpected little place, unannounced.,” wrote one online viewer.
We couldn’t agree more.
