Some people were queuing outside the Scala Theatre for tickets for a very popular show.They had to wait for several hours, and during that time they were entertained by a young man who was playing very nicely on a trumpet.The queue enjoyed his music and put quite a lot of money in the box that he had on the ground in front of him.
At last one of the people in the queue said to him ,’’you play too well to be a beggar.’’
I’m not a beggar,’the young man said.’I’m studying to be a trumpet player in a big band,and I have to practice several hours every day,so I thought it would be nice to do it in the fresh air instead of in my small room on days when the weather was nice and also to get a bit of money at the same time.
