merits of music posted on Thursday, January 05, 2006

"People were quite surprised to find that I only played the fortepiano, and I began to realise that my repertory had, in fact, been very restrictive, all of it written within a period of eighty or so years. My school days had been so steeped in French nineteenth- and twentieth-century repertory, and I found myself wondering what it would be like to do all that again, so I did!"

"If people do not perform their duties properly then they will have to take responsibility for it and answer for it in the appropriate way. But military training is such that it has to be realistic for it to be useful, and the people will be ready. From time to time, there will be incidents and accidents, even with the best of efforts. I think the Singapore public is mature enough to understanding it."
