Thought for the Day


Thought for the Day

I am often puzzled at parents who are easily frustrated when their children struggle with musical concepts, but rush to their children’s aid when they stumble and fall on the stairs.  Abraham Lincoln had many political failures before he became president of the United States.  Children are going to play out of tune before thy play in tune.  They will play wrong notes before they play the right notes.  It is the responsibility of parents and music teachers to exhibit much patience with them when they practice.  GLW
