MCDONALD'S

ANDREW SHAPIRO AT MCDONALD'S - SOLO PIANO EVERY SUNDAY FROM NOON-4PM - 160 BROADWAY, DOWNTOWN MANHATTAN

On a lofted grand piano with a backdrop of the "Golden Arches," composer Andrew Shapiro performs his artful blend of classical, ambient and minimalist music at McDonald's Sundays throughout the year. For his groundbreaking marriage of fast-food and the contemporary arts, Shapiro received an extensive profile in The New York Times headlined "Quarter Pounder With Keys" and was featured as the "Best Pianist in a Fast-Food Restaurant" in the "Best of New York" issue of the Village Voice. "Pure Andrew: The sublime in collision with the mundane" --Peter Jensen
