About half a year ago I was standing at W4 Street Station at 11 o’clock, extremely exhausted and stressed out about life, when I heard some beautiful saxophone music playing down the station. Despite having to be in the front of the train, I walked towards the music at the back of the platform and came across this man: Henry Sax. He had an amplifier with a distinct blue “on” light and a microphone that was attached by a rope to hover over the saxophone’s opening, delivering the perfect volume of music for the crowd. And my god did this man have a crowd – there was at least 20 people there and perhaps a dozen more sheepishly grinning from the sides. I was unaware of the mellow hip-hop tune that he was playing but managed to alleviate my worries for the five minutes that I stood there in total trance. I vowed to give him a dollar once he was done performing but unfortunately had no cash (although I would’ve happily given him my debit card, that’s how good he was). He had a container of business cards that just said “Henry Sax”, and after a furious two week quest of finding out more about this man, I gave up – only to find new videos of him on Youtube from the past 2 months. These videos are below!
