The Subway Pianist in Buenos Aires (El Pianista Del Subte)

The Subte in Buenoes Aires is one of the coolest places to explore. You pay 50 cents and you get a ride around the city and the opportunity to see hundreds of musicians and performers.

One of my experiences in the subte stands out above the others. I came across a man who was sitting on the floor playing some of the most difficult classical pieces on a basic Casio keyboard. 

There was no sustain pedal, no fancy gear, just a Casio keyboard and his 2 hands. 

He was no Lang Lang but it was still impressive to watch.  

Watch this video to meet this extraordinary man and learn how he survives playing piano in the subway of Buenos Aires.
