Arvids Jansons, with Mariss in short pants, aged 10. The pianist is Svatoslav Richter. The value of music education early in life ! In this case music education at the highest, hands-on level. Early exposure to the idea that the arts are a fundamental part of civilization. Some, these days, live the mantra "When I hear the word 'culture' I reach for my gun!", since they already know all there is to know. Their loss.
