Classic Buskers - photographed by Steven Kennard

**Michael Copley and Ian Moore are two extremely funny, talented musicians.** The raucous humour that they bring to their performance and share with their audience is only possible from two experienced and respected classical professionals, completely at ease with their respective instruments – these range from accordion, flute, recorders through rubber chicken, kazoo etc.. The origins of this duo date back to the 70’s in Cambridge, England, where two students started busking to make some money to earn some cash. Ever since then they have been delighting audiences world-wide and shattering the prejudices of those who had considered this to be a stuffy genre. Playing over the slideshow are their renditions of Offenbach's “Orpheus in the Underworld” and "The Ruins of Athens, Op. 113: No.4” by Beethoven (used by kind permission) from their CD entitled “Mini Classics” in a glimpse of the joys of attending one of their concerts. *Music copyright Classic Buskers, photography copyright St
