But Vivaldi and Mozart are a very good start to listen to classical music with the kids. They are both melodic and easy to listen. Theye were considered "pop musicians" at their time :) I wish pop music would be the same quality these days...

    piano:
    1. easy for beginners to progress compared to other instruments
    2. harder to master because of hand coordination
    3. suitable for any and every kind of music
    4. biggest range out of all instruments
    5. versatility of expression is simply unmatched
    6. pianists are definitely more versatile musicians because we have to adjust to whatever instrument is in front of us, others can carry their instruments (excluding organists)

      And then he looked right through me
      As if I wasn't there

      Singing clear and strong
      Strumming my pain with his fingers
      Singing my life with his words
      Killing me softly with his song

    I like Shostakovich because many of his pieces are Metal and quite dark, Wagner for the epic sound (and his long operas) and Tchaikovsky for the romantic and sad parts.

    You have it spot on. Always loved piano, always loved Chopin.
