    I am curious to know on which points you disagree but I won’t go on either, or the thread might be sent down to the dungeon.
    Well, 'object', rather than 'disagree', perhaps. I certainly had very little opportunity for hearing classical music when I was younger so it wasn't simply that I 'grew into it' when I was ready for it.

    Though I think I might, erm, disagree on whether young children should be introduced to the music in a way that is appropriate to their age. I would suggest that they would 'grow out of' those early techniques but be left with a familiarisation with the music that they've heard. Leaving it to 'general education' or 'schools' means it probably won't happen.
    It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.
