"Whether you are five years old and irresistibly drawn to the piano in your home, or you are an adult..."

“Whether you are five years old and irresistibly drawn to the piano in your home, or you are an adult who suddenly falls in love with music and decides to take lessons, the knowledge that you belong in the world of music is deep and indestructible. It is part of your basic nature, as much as the color of your eyes or the sound of your voice. Even your choice of instrument might feel choiceless; you hear a piano or a cello and somehow know that that is the instrument you must play.”

- Madeline Bruser (from The Art of Practicing)


I might just end up quoting this entire book on here; it’s that fantastic!
