No -- the link came from Kaibab.

I learned about the article from a Chinese business partner -- he thought it was a riot and wanted to share. As soon as I got to the author's gentle approach regarding piano indoctrination, I immediately thought of this thread. Obviously I was not alone!

Our daughter was deemed ready for ritualistic torture-by-ivory after our meeting with the piano instructor last week!!! She already learned her first song and knows the names of all the white keys. I'll bet three hours of practice per day will turn her into a virtuoso in no time at all.

It'd be an interesting experiment to apply the more "intense" approach with her and see how she fares compared to her brother, who we practically coddled all along by some measurements. Just imagine the possibilities!
