| Hi all, Since nothing is ever "one-size-fits-all," I think all of the various viewpoints about whether teaching is beneficial have validity, for someone. For the sake of those who want to explore other people's ideas, I'd suggest if you have something you want to share that you vet your co... |

I think we're close to having too many categories on the main forum page, which would mean more scrolling... Reviews. When Glen posted his announcement about 121Normal, I looked to see if there was a place fo... |

| Hi Manny, Thanks so much for getting things up and running so well. It occurs to me that there are many links to the old forum out there in the world, so perhaps a redirect for bad URLs going to the main page would be a good idea. Great to see so many posts already, and all the old names coming back... |

| The one page of Slonimsky that I was able to view looked useful, too. However, if Greg adapts those excercises to the Stick, he may have copyright issues. I'm pretty sure that Hanon is public domain. (I won't mention that Slonimsky looks more difficult, too. Just because I'm a wimp doesn't mean tha... |
