I have yet to visit Central Park, Wall Street, The Twin Towers Memorial, and a laundry list of other places in New York City… But the one thing I regret not doing these past two days in NYC is stopping for 5 minutes to listen to this violinist. I was in a rush because I didn’t want to miss my train back to Connecticut. But if I had the opportunity to remake one decision from my two-day trip, it would be to stop in that subway tunnel and soak this in…

The sound was so theatrical and rich with sorrow. When I heard it, the first emotionally corresponding scene to pop into my head was the final scene from Man on Fire. It was absolutely breathtaking… I suppose it’s another one of those things that exemplifies and contributes to the majesty of New York City.
