Legend has it that Mayor Pete also performed Rhapsody in Blue with a local orchestra whilst mayor, but I cannot find a video of it on YouTube.

Fantastic. One of my all-time favorite pieces in maybe my favorite American city. Kudos to Mayor Wu.

I enjoyed that.

The comments section was interesting. Seems like politics has to enter every conversation at some point.

The black keys on the Steinway look a little beat up. I'm not sure what would have caused that.

Side note: the concertmaster is the spitting image of one of my former bosses.
