An Appreciation

…. You seem always to have been seeking a more complete understanding of the complex art of playing the piano and making music. In the process, you have enlisted other seekers, who have caught some of you enthusiasm for the search.
In my experience, part of your goal as a pianist and piano teacher has been to make connections between piano music and other forms of music, and between music and other spheres of life, particularly other art forms. What has this accomplished? It has directed a great many students away from regarding the pianist as primarily a technician. Instead, it has encouraged them to see their activity in a more significant way, as a form of genuine human communication.
Thank you, Dr. Bratuz for you valuable contribution to my life. I wish you many happy years of retirement. With love,
Douglas Robinson.
