The Original title Of The Piece was Pearls Before Breakfast it won a Pulitzer Prize. It was published in April of 2007. Here is some footage on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnOPu0_YWhw&playnext=1&list=PLF291887E7386E965 It is interesting to Google "Pearls Before Breakfast" to see the commentary it has been generating ever since.

Oh Wow.. thanks outlier. The sound track isn't good. The aquistics was probably not ideal :(

The same scenario could be interpreted as the effect of an inappropriate venue. A violin in a train station is so inappropriate and lacking in decent harmonics with such a high noise environment it just becomes noise adding to the stress of mass transit. Saying people didn't notice the beauty is like saying people are uncultured for giggling at the woman that shows up in an evening gown to a monster truck show.

Not the best sand I've seen by any means, I have to say.

I love classical music and opera. I was exposed to Mozart at an early age and immediately fell in love (so much so, it prompted me to learn the violin and shortly thereafter German - well, an attempt to learn German). I would, and have, stopped and listened in awe...if it weren't rush hour on my way to work. I would have been like the kid wanting to listen, but being tugged away. Not from a hand, but from responsibility. I believe this experiment was designed to fail.

I live in Banksy's city of Bristol (or his last recorded city, anyway). And . . . I think I've found a new one of his, so far unrecognised.

The subway is not a place I feel safe. Plus expecting me to miss a train and be late is not appropriate. Now, if it were good weather and this was in Central Park, I imagine the results would have been quite different.
