A city sidewalk hums with ordinary noise, then a tiny voice and a violin pull everything into focus. The surprise lands fast: the singer is 4-year-old Nicholas Protsenko, and the violinist beside him is his 7-year-old brother, Leo. Together they turn Matt Redman’s “10,000 Reasons…
A good flash mob feels like a secret that suddenly becomes public. One minute, a normal day is rolling along, then a familiar riff cuts through the air and heads turn fast. That’s the energy captured in the official video of a Blues Brothers flash…

Cold air, open pavement, a busker’s voice bouncing off the street, and then Hobart starts to shift. Markus K isn’t on a grand stage here, which is the surprise, but his take on Sixteen Tons has enough pull to turn a casual public space into…
