Stop and Hear the Music

Here's an interesting commentary on the state of classical music today. It's a video of an experiment by one of the most famous classical violinists in the world, Joshua Bell, where he plays the Bach Chaconne from the solo violin Partita, BWV 1004 in a Washington D.C. subway station. I think the video pretty much speaks for itself.
