Choi Jun-hyeok is a Korean tourist who recently visited Italy on holiday and had a memorable experience with a group of Italian street musicians in the city of Florence. The korean tourist who is a musician back home decided to join on a performance while playing a contrabass!

Here are the street musicians playing music on a street in Florence and the young Korean tourist inquires if he could join in and play. He is a contrabass player and after borrowing an instrument from one of the musicians proceeds to play with the other musicians seamlessly!

Joining in with the street musicians.

The musical piece is called “Dead leaves” which is a popular jazz standard and the violinist is playing aggressively!

It was nice to be able to play with these talented musicians! In Korea I played the contrabass with 4 strings, but there were only 3 strings on this instrument so I was worried but it was a lot of fun!
