Stop by this mobile recording studio in Ridgewood, one of 12 around the city, to contribute a vocal or instrumental snippet to the music being created on the spot.

One of MMNY’s single-instrument Mass Appeal get-togethers, this improvised performance, led by Loop 2.4.3., features gongs galore, including a four-octave set of tuned Thai nipple gongs.

Bluegrass, old-timey folk, and Americana acts such as Homesick Hound Dogs and Gypsy George gather for an afternoon hootenanny.

The structures aren’t just the setting here—they’re the instruments, as 24 percussionists and an orchestra resonate through the cast-iron facades of eight buildings.

A horde of fiddlers converges outside Joe’s Pub to perform horas and freylekhs and other klezmer tunes.
