Joshua Bell one of the best violinist of the world played marvelous pieces from J.S.Bach at Boston theater this year. The audience paid around $100 dollars to appreciate him. Joshua played with his Stradivarus violin which costs $3.5 million dollars.
YOU BET IT WAS WORTH IT.
Washington Post understands that not everybody can afford to pay to listen to Joshua Bell at the theaters around the world.
So...
Believe it or not, he was at the subway station during the rush hour playing the same masterpieces that he played in Boston theater, with the same $3.5 million violin.
His audience were 6 children who insisted in making their mothers' stop, but the children were dragged with no success, looking backwards to appreciate the music. Two elderly people stopped a few minutes too. Only 1 woman watched all the performance , congratulating the man she didn't even know who he was.
After one hour of performance, Joshua Bell received tips which summed up to $35 dollars.
Would you have stopped?
How many other moments life offers you and you are missing right now?
Think about this.
