Do you like swinging? If you are in Montréal this spring, you should definitely have a go on one of those dreamy little swings that are part of the 21-piece swing orchestra located in the heart of Montréal’s Quartier des Spectacles. There is a piano swing, a guitar swing, a harp, and other instruments that can be played alone or together. The installation encourages strangers to get involved in creating music together using their whole bodies and the aim is to fill all the 21 seats as "we can achieve more together than alone". What a brilliant concept!
Oh, and to make it even more dreamy, as soon as the sun sets, all the swings light up! I’m totally getting nostalgic just watching that little video. Have a look for yourself!
Crikey, this must be the coolest swing I have ever seen! Don’t you think? xo
P.S: Rainbow staircase in Italy.
P.P.S: Plus, blooming hallways...
