The Washington Post did a fantastic check of what we have become - or at least a check of our attitude towards beauty. They got Joshua Bell to play on his Stradivarius at the L'Enfant Metro station.
For those who do not know Joshua Bell is an absolutely amazing violinist. He seems to live thru the music when he is playing - absorbing the notes and transmitting them thru to produce a visual and aural feast. You feel his personification of whatever he is playing and that his true brilliance. I got to catch him playing with the Austin Symphony Orchestra about 15 years ago and still remember the performance.
Anyway please read the following article http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/04/AR2007040401721.html
Has a lot to say about who we are..
