Extractions: Home Teaching Philosophy References ... Contact Do you speak Chinese? Probably not. It might be a fascinating subject to study, but unless you are from a Chinese background, or were a particularly gifted student in this field it would most likely seem quite foreign. Many of us do feel a connection to a language other than English, perhaps Hebrew or Italian. We may not be fluent in it but it carries an emotional resonance; we feel a connection to it (as would a Chinese person to his language). I like to think of music in these terms; as language. And I'd like my students to have the opportunity to hear and feel music at least as closely as a second language; closer perhaps, since there are no words! A lifetime of listening to music has helped me to enjoy it as I do. So I thought a list of recommended recordings and artists might help my students and their parents find some of the music that's "spoken" to me over the years. Unlike practicing, which must be organized and disciplined, this listening is just for enjoyment, though it can lead to thinking, enthusiasm, mellowness (depending on the music at hand!) and increased appreciation for the arts. It can become part of the atmosphere of your home. And, especially if a child has not yet "learned" that classical music is "boring", a parent's interest can send a signal to a child that it may be something worthwhile.
