Mark’s Music Talent

友達的音樂天才

Our 2nd child, Mark was in a pre-school when he was three. His teacher told me their class’ daily activity started from Mark’s playing piano and his classmates singing along. I was in disbelief because Mark never had a piano lesson and we had no piano at home. Soon we bought a used one and found a teacher for Mark. He had his first piano recital at age four. Later, he also learned violin and played in orchestras touring in Europe but never majored in music.

我們的第二個孩子友達,他三歲在育幼園的時候,他的老師告訴我:他們班的日常活動是由友達彈鋼琴.他的同學們一起唱歌. 我無法相信這話,因為友達從來沒學過鋼琴.我們家裡也沒有鋼琴.不久,我們買了一個舊鋼琴請了位老師.友達 4歲他第一次鋼琴表演. 後來他還學了小提琴加入樂團在歐洲巡迴演出, 但從來沒有主修音樂.
