One-man band, afloat and electric!

If one man ticks several boxes for our challenge it is Reinier Sijpkens. From the canals of Holland to the canals of Venice, to Arz Island in Brittany Goa in south-west India, Reinier Sijpkens delights crowds, young and old by playing music from his electric-outboard engined, brightly coloured Notendop (= musical note + nutshell) which he also calls the Muziekboot. For his “orchestra, Reinier who likes to be known as “Homo ludens” (= “Playing man”), cranks a portable pianola-roll barrel organ with one hand, a bugle in the other, then whistles birdsong and operatic arias through his two fingers. While he plays, using his elbow, he steers his colourful little boat around in pirouette circles like the e-ballerinas of Venice
