🗓On January 12, 2007, a man just outside a subway station in Washington D.C. started to play the violin.

🎻Over the course of 45 minutes, he played six pieces, including pieces by Bach and Schubert.

👥Because it was rush hour, exactly 1,097 people poured through the station, most of them on their way to work.

⏱🎻After playing for almost an hour, he had received just under $33 in tips and no applause.

🎻💰The violinist played one of the most intricate pieces ever written with a violin worth $3.5 million dollars.

3⃣Three days earlier, had performed in a sold-out theater in Boston playing the exact same pieces to people who paid $112 per ticket.
