Thanks a million for this webinar. It hasn't only been extremely enjoyable, but also useful, as it encouraged me to aim for discovering the new beauty of music. Just listened to Adagietto.

Georgy, thank you for giving us an opportunity to get closer to music. You speak about it so effortlessly and with such inspiration. The 9 years I had spent in music school as a teenager had taught me less than you did.
