Walking through Music in Munich

Walking through Munich, I was really impressed with the live music that keeps flowing from different corners. Here are two such pieces. (Thanks Sanjeev, for helping me edit the video and upload here).

Marienplatz: Marienplatz is Munich city centre. A very beautiful city where old architecture is retained for new buildings. It is indeed an experience to walk between them listening to music, stopping over to window shop, watch a few street performers and see the colourful Farmers’ market. My colleugue Lorenz who took us around the city told me that, the singers who perform on the street, are chosen by the authorities everyday. Here is one Asian music group and a European. Listen to them!

Englischen Garten: Englischen Garten is a sprawling landscape and beer garden, so called in contrast to the well-pruned French gardens. I went there on a sunny evening, the best time for sun, music and beer. Listen to this troup!
