Exquisite, poignant love story of an artist, his art, his family, his fans and his integrity
doogles-b14 September 2009
It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me feel religious! Such a gift Li possesses, and from what a family, complete with devoted grandparents, and with such an array of instructors from when he first began keyboard playing the accordion because a piano was too expensive. Then there was the well-meaning piano teacher who hit Li' young knuckles with a ruler to get him to improve the curve of his fingers and wrist -- only to learn that his mother used the same technique with the somewhat less traumatizing tool of chopsticks. And how Mr. Li interacts with Mr Ozawa and other musicians ... well, I'll leave it for you to discover. It's sheer joy -- with vitamins included!
