Sounds of Plaza Elíptica
So without fail, whenever I get off the metro at Plaza Elíptica (where I switch to the bus to get to campus), I hear keyboard music coming from the passage. An older man sits for hours at his keyboard, playing basic and repetitive tunes to the beat of an electronic metronome. Occasionally playing familiar sounds, occasionally tunes which rise and fall as hundreds of people walk past. Rarely have I seen the man smile, he always looks a little sad and a little bored (no wonder, he sits at a keyboard all day long).
Often when I return in the afternoon there is a younger (but balder..) guy sitting at the keyboard and playing the same sort of stuff. But, there never fails to be someone sitting at the keyboard playing music in Plaza Elíptica.
