Pearls Before Breakfast

Pearls Before Breakfast:

An article from the Washington Post Magazine from last year.

“Can one of the nation’s great musicians cut through the fog of a D.C. rush hour?”

“It was the most astonishing thing I’ve ever seen in Washington,” Furukawa says. “Joshua Bell was standing there playing at rush hour, and people were not stopping, and not even looking, and some were flipping quarters at him! Quarters! I wouldn’t do that to anybody. I was thinking, Omigosh, what kind of a city do I live in that this could happen?”
