19: Educate yourselves

[samuraiprosecutor]

If the videos that inundated my 'friends page' are any indication, your collective musical education is lacking. I don't know how many of you will be able to appreciate this, but it is worth a try.

It's very pretty.

[samuraiprosecutor]

It is. Rubinstein was an exceptional pianist.

Rubenstein? I've never heard of...him.

[samuraiprosecutor]

A Polish-American pianist of the 20th century. His brilliance was widely recognized by his peers. This piece he's playing is also a particular favorite of mine.

Wow...you're very smart, sir!

[samuraiprosecutor]

I am no connoisseur, but I know enough to have determined some favorite composers and musicians.

Are you a musician yourself?

[samuraiprosecutor]

No, merely an enthusiast. I've never had the time necessary to learn adequately.

[cleaver-bitch.livejournal.com]

You seem to like music a lot, though, and you're very smart.

If I may ask...what is it that you do, if you are not a musician?

[samuraiprosecutor]

I am a prosecutor for the state of California.

Ano...it sounds very important, very! You must be one of the best prosecutors there, sir!

If the press and my colleagues are to be believed, I am.
