Musicians look to set a busking world record

Musequality, a UK-based charity that funds communal music projects for disadvantaged children in developing countries, today announces the launch of the first annual Musequality World Busk, a week of busking events around the world from 8th – 14th June 2009. Sunday 14th is a special day for young buskers and includes an attempt to set a world record for the biggest busk the world has ever seen. 

Musequality was founded in 2007 by professional violinist David Juritz, leader of the London Mozart Players and the London Tango Quintet. The first busk saw Juritz play in 50 cities in 24 countries and on every continent around the world except Antarctica. This year, the money raised will help set up new projects and expand existing projects in countries such as India, Thailand, Uganda and South Africa.
