Amazing Street Artist Claudio "Birdman" Montuori

I recently stumbled-upon this Italian street artist named Claudio Montuori, and quickly fell in love with his music, it amazes me how creative and musical he can be with a few toys, whistles and hand made thumb pianos. This is beautiful creative music at it's prime, lets hope that more artists like him stay underground hidden from the claws of commerciality and stay true to their art.


He himself posted as a comment on this youtube video: 
"The instrument I'm playing in this video is called sanza or karimba, an instrument originary from Africa, I made myself the one you're hearing in this video, The title of this song is 'The spider's blues', if you want a definition of the genre of this track I would call it 'Tribal Fantasy Music'...but I guess definitions are unimportant and in the end I don't like them. My job in the street is about contributing to the right for musical freedom."
