This is Michael. He's been playing the violin since he was a little boy. He lives in Gent, Belgium playing the violin and selling paintings to collect money for his wellbeing. I was completely moved by his playing and his music. It was so beautiful to that I had to stop and listen and then realized I had tears running down my face. I don't know what piece he was playing but it sounded like it was just something he created on his own in the moment. I don't know how to explain it but Michael's playing is just... different. Something else than I've ever heard from a street performer. I really want to help him so that's why I've made this video. The beautiful sound that this man makes with his violin has moved me so much, that I just want to help and buy him at least a new bow. I noticed his was a bit brown and used, and I don't know.. I just want to help. I would love it if this video was shared by your friends and family and literally anything will help. This video is a bit hard to hear at first with the cars, and motorcycles but I hope it's enough to make you feel the way I do when I listened to him playing.
