I was walking around the Palo Alto Arts and Wine
Festival the other day (in the Silicon Valley, you apparently cannot have arts
without wine; they all include both) and came upon a string quartet.
Now, this is a bit out of the ordinary, although it
was the “arts” and wine festival. But usually you’ll have a single musician,
or maybe a duo, with CDs for sale and an open instrument case for donations.
These four (as you can see) were just playing—Pachelbel,
then a czardas and then a tango. No sign, no container for coins.
They’re from the Palo Alto Chamber Orchestra, and they were a delight.
