Phantom of the Orchestra<\/p>\n
Throughout the streets of Edinburgh performers gain notoriety through their talent, their persistence and recognition. But not ‘The Phantom’.<\/p>\n
Nobody knows who he is or where he’s from. Is his name Johnny and is that fiddle made of gold?
\nI suspect no on both counts as he’s not wearing a check shirt and that violin actually sounded like a real wooden violin!<\/p>\n
So in my musings he will remain the Phantom of the Orchestra until proved otherwise.<\/p>\n
