The Happiest Guy in the World

That is what Collin Huggins calls himself in his website. This former ballet accompanist lugs his grand piano to Washington Square Park nearly every Saturday and Sunday, weather permitting, just to entertain park goers with his superbly played classical music. At least that is what he was playing the last two times I saw him there.

As people walk into the park and stop to listen, he occasionally looks up to hawk his $10 CDs saying they would "change your life."

You can read about him at his website and keep up with his comings and goings from his Facebook page. And here you can see a You Tube video.
