Real Music

This is a real musician. A real violinist playing real music. I don't mean he's super-talented like Perlman or Oistrakh (sp?), but he is good. He was playing Tzigane by Monti. I noticed there was not a speck of varnish on his violin, but it had a good, deep, clear sound. He used only the first three fingers of his left hand, which was enough. Other musicians often play on Ben Yehuda. Guitar, keyboard, viola, and accordion. There are often beggars, some who have a pretty good act, and some who are real. I like to give to a musician, though, since he spent all those hours and hours practicing.

And on the way home we saw this dog,

and this mural/mosaic.
