Benjamin Zander gives a Music Lesson

Take the 30 minutes and watch the music lesson that Benjamin Zander gives a 15-year-old cellist. The magic here, I think, is how he keeps an artist in touch with the deepest, greatest reasons to make music in the first place, and gets his student to put those reasons into every note. This philosophy applies to any art form. When you deeply feel why you do your art, it puts truth into your work - and truth is what people respond to. And get out of their seats and applaud for. Artists make the world bigger for everyone their work touches.
