ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
It's not that Asians have no soul. But what is different is that there are many more Asians playing the piano than any other ethnicity. So on pure numbers, there will be a lot more unmusical Asians. However, if we look at proportions, it will be the same regardless of ethnicity.Also, there is a negative Asian bias in the Western world. Asians are looked down upon the way Americans look down upon Hispanics, Asians, blacks, middle Easterners, Indians, American natives, Jews... Yeah, we hate everyone who's not white!
Okay SO... This is how it is...*me playing John Cage 4'33*Kid: wow you're soooooooo good!
LOL, you lost all credibility at that point....
-Looks at rachmaninoff_forever's signature- Is that seriously your repertoire
Yup!*looks away*.
I knew it! You lied about being a child prodigy!Now you get to join the 'club of being rightfully accused' with j_menz!AHAHAHA
When did I say I was a child prodigy?
I think he meant you lied about NOT being a child prodigy Get it now?
The US motto should be, 'if you got oil/resources, a non controlled bank we'll wipe it out! *bomb them*' because that's pretty much what we do unfortunately.
What the heck where are you guys getting this from?!
When did you last check your signature...how old are you again?EDIT:OK, you won this one
You're just jealous that you don't have the sufficient technique to tackle this monster work!
wongly accused
No, I think he's rightfully accused.
Besides, that's always what they say when they're rightfully accused!

Also when they are wrongly accused.
This is actually untrue. Due to the nature of language, certain native languages produce more musicians than other languages. This is due, in part, to the complexities of pronunciation of different words and the natural training of the ear that goes along with understanding it. Very generically, Asian languages tend to have more subtlety in the tonality differences used in pronouncing similar words. This gives them a more natural 'musicians ear', so to speak.
Many Asian languages are classified as tone languages, that it, it is musically melodic compared to German or English. However, this doesn't make Asians better at interpreting Western music, which uses different cadences and such. It's a different language, thus they are still bound to the learning as others.
People do have different vocal structures which results in unique pitches if they opened up their mouths and say "awww". (The last time I checked, my normal pitch was about B-flat.) However, when speaking to other people, we hear that the pitches are out of tune and adjust immediately because dissonance sounds bad.For example, my toddler nephew's normal pitch was much lower than what was spoken to him. He sounded out of tune when he made sounds and when he learned to speak. However, he has since learned the normal speaking pitch which is higher than he spoke before.Speaking in the same key is normal for all languages, not just tone languages. However, it is most noticeable in tone languages because vowels are emphasized.
You sound just like my white friend, Clavile! She meets a couple of Asians and thinks they represent ALL Asians. She's white, btw. And lives in the Dallas/Houston area.This is the point where I say, "white people..." *shakes head in exasperation.* Meanwhile, African Americans like to do drugs. They deal drugs. They hang out in large groups of other African Americans wearing the same colors. They don't to school, they go to prison. They like to beat people up and rob liquor stores. Oh, and they have dark skin and are very arrogant! One of them is even the president of the United States!The above statement could just as easily apply to some Asians, except for the president part. Asians haven't achieved that kind of racial equality yet.
It's called "tall poppy syndrome". ... I wonder if it will be the same when most of the world speaks Chinese in a few decades from now.
Notice the obvious difference?
Why would anyone hate Asians?? They are small modest hard working people who have the genes for playing the piano. Just like black people have the genes for singing (the blues), dancing and playing basketball. And the Finns have the genes for drinking too much and killing each other/themselves before passing out. It's always good to know what to expect from certain people
