Perception

What if he chose a different setting? Hanging out isn't what subway stations are designed for. They are built to keep people moving and discourage repose. I don't think a piece that requires serious listening gets a fair shot in such a place.

It is interesting about expectations though. If you go to see a AAA baseball game you see players who are in the top x% in the world. If you go to a MLB game you watch the top 1/4x% in the world. You can see the difference but is it worth the difference in admission? Part of the excitement of baseball is when someone makes a mental error causing something unusual to occur.

Maybe a less professional musician is free to interpret something in a radically different way... [big shrug]
