Hi Andrew! Your videos are entertaining and informative. Many thanks! I hope that more people will click on the 'donate' button. Very Happy It's only fair. We'd pay for a book, we ought to pay for you.

Now to my idea. I think I'd like to know what Mozart, Haydn, the Bach children, and other creative keyboardists experienced during their first months of contact with the instrument (harpsichord, I guess). What sorts of little key presses did they make, what did daddy Leopold etc. do to guide them, little things like that. What were those first explorations of harmony literally like? I'm curious. A lesson spelling that out would be fascinating.

The objective is not to expect to become a Mozart. But the intellectual and musical benefits of those kinds of activities--whatever they were--would be ours to have if we but knew what they were. Whatever the procedures were, probably they were fun, playful, and informative, rather than rote, drilling, and rigid. Now eventually of course a more organized procedure was set in place. But that's after those first months.

Thanks again!
