[@KaleeWhittaker]

Thank you for capturing it/me.

[@thomasday8792]

My young friends starting piano, do not passively go where those lessons lead you, which is toward ever-more-faithful rendition of the standard written repertoire. Music was recorded on paper only because we didn't have machines, but it means the greatest possible student achievement is to render what was in the composer's heart. Not your heart. And so you risk a flatness of experience, where in the end you will play only the two carols you remember and are demanded every Christmas by your drunken uncles. But this playlist, касандра: Real Music, is to show you that we've freed ourselves to see our very own exultations and despairs reflected in the eyes of our listeners, the greatest thrill for any artist. Play these pieces loud. Change teachers every two years. Learn Blues, Jazz, and improv; play with others. Write to Mr. Saban, to Hania Rani, ask if a mentor could bring you to a rehearsal.
