いい日本人という感じの方。
当たり前のこと、ありきたりのことかもしれないけど、
植松さんの人柄が暖かみを感じさせてくれる。
夢の持ち方、叶え方を提案しています。


「やったことないことをやってみる」

「でも、まずいと思ったら逃げるもあり^^」

「ただいま成長中」

夢がある?

「どーせ無理」

ではなく、

「だったらこうしてみたら?」

Shining eyes

Benjamin Zander, a leading interpreter of Mahler and Beethoven, had the presentation about classical music and precious thing in our life at TED conference.
He begins his talk with the difference of how to play piano between 7,8,9 and 10 year-old children. His interesting interpretation about notes is that B is for sad and E is home. Imagine your most adorable person who are no longer with you, at the same time follow the line all the way from B to E, and you feel Chopin. He says everyone has fantastic ear and classical music is for everyone. He realized that the conductor's job is to awaken possibilities in other people. The words most impressed me is

"Definition of success is how many shining eyes I have around me."

He ends his performance with the story of the girl who survived Auschwitz.
