By most measures, he was nondescript: a youngish white man in jeans, a long-sleeved T-shirt and a Washington Nationals baseball cap. From a small case, he removed a violin. Placing the open case at his feet, he shrewdly threw in a few dollars and pocket change as seed money, swiveled it to face pedestrian traffic, and began to play.
It was 7:51 a.m. on Friday, January 12, the middle of the morning rush hour. In the next 43 minutes, as the violinist performed six classical pieces, 1,097 people passed by. Almost all of them were on the way to work, which meant, for almost all of them, a government job. L'Enfant Plaza is at the nucleus of federal Washington, and these were mostly mid-level bureaucrats with those indeterminate, oddly fungible titles: policy analyst, project manager, budget officer, specialist, facilitator, consultant.

Robert Schumann - Traumerei (Reverie)
Yay for classical video #2! :) This is the 7th piece from a collection of Schumann's works called "Kinderszenen", also known as Scenes from Childhood. I first learned this song from my piano teacher when I was 8, but at that age I had absolutely no emotion with playing this song. I've decided to bring this song back, since this is one of my favorite songs by Schumann. I hope you guys enjoy this piece just as much as I do. :)
