Excellent capture. Some people feel that street photography is easy, you just walk around and take pictures. I understand how difficult it is and I applaud you for this amazing capture. the DOF is fabulous. I also like the sepia tone.

This is a stunning candid shot! from a 9 to a 10! The tonal rage is impressive and the choice of B&W is idealfor this shot. I don't know how I could improve this! great job!!

Excellent duotone! Great contrast and focus especially on the jacket which looks like a nightmare to expose correctly. I'd crop this shot a bit differently, however. Starting with the upper left corner. Maybe crop the left side a small amount to eliminate that dark triangle. I'm suggesting this since you already cropped part of the case so a little bit more would not hurt the composition. Now for the right side. The dark part of the post needs to go as I feel it draws too much attention away from the man's jacket. If you cropped right up to the gray portion of that post would be perfect. 8

Nice and clear, lovely toning. I like the way he's holding his left hand, and how he looks at you as if he's saying, "What do you want? I'm working."

They say that successful portraits should have direct eye contact. Well, this one doesn't and I think it's still great! It's hard to know whether it would be improved even further by direct eye contact or whether that would change the mood too much. I really like the crispness of the foreground subject against the blurred background. I like the high contrast black and white. I like the strong vertical of his instrument and the way it's echoed by that metal girder to the right. I like the detail of the open instrument case. This image makes me want to be able to hear him and that means it's definitely communicated to me. 10

I really like the toning and the contrast. The DoF is used to great effect too. We can see he is still on the street but it isn't distracting us :) 9
