Meh, good point. If they didn't place him in L'Enfant Station (one of the busiest in DC) it would have been easier to stop and listen but to be honest if I'm at L'Enfant I just want to find my train and go.I can easily post that I would have stayed and listened, but without actually facing that particular circumstance, I would be lying and so would every one of you. Perhaps one of the 1100 people that walked by noticed that the music was very good and they wanted to stay, but had some other, more pressing matters which to them was more important than listening to music at that particular moment in the history of time.
I was in Penn the other day and I stopped to read the poetry engraved on the walls.
... this was a "perfect storm", and it's a shame that only a handful of people recognized this.
What I'm gathering from a bunch of posts is that it's a shame that people didn't stop to admire some classical music that they just happened to pass on their way to work. And again, I'm biased because I'm a violinist myself, but this was so much more than just some random classical music. This wasn't just some average guy or student playing some ordinary violin with intonation problems... this was one of the most talented violinists in the entire world playing some of the most perfect music (Bach Chaconne, Gavotte, etc.) on a 300 year old violin that's valued at $4 million dollars - in other words, the best of the best of the best... this was a "perfect storm", and it's a shame that only a handful of people recognized this.
