Update: San Francisco Street Artists (0507-001) on Photoduniya.com

 

I wrote about Chen Wei sometime back – he is one of the saxophone players who spends the evenings and after work hours playing at various corners of San Francisco.

Chen works at a restaurant during the day to keep the living. The evenings and night are mostly spent playing the saxophone. He does it mainly to keep the art alive in him and it also helps if people donate some money. But boy! you should see how he pours his heart and soul into each breath. Unlike the traditional suited-booted saxophone player, Chen brings the life to his music as he sways and turns with each toned expression.

    Do you know where Chen Wei plays?

    I have met Chen in downtown San Francisco. He plays all over the city – the Embarcadero, Wharf, Pier, Powell and even close to Tenderloin. But the most probable place of finding him is close to China Town.

    Hope this helps.
