Features: This book not only selects articles Fu Lei wrote on music during his lifetime, as well as the dialogues between Fu Lei and Fu Cong about music—some of which are excerpted from the New Edition of Letters from Fu Lei (January 2006, Tianjin Social Sciences Edition); but also compiles Fu Cong's journey from the 1980s to the present, as he followed the path paved by his father, pursuing the realm of art with independent thinking and an unwavering dedication to artistic excellence. Guided by his free will, he roams the vast ocean of piano artistry, shining brilliantly and uniquely on the current sparse stage of art. Fu Cong's achievements since the late 1960s to this day fully embody Fu Lei's educational philosophy, which he once stated as: "First, to be a person, then an artist, then a musician, and finally a pianist." Fu Lei's concept of being a person is broad; he once said, "Private morality and public morality are both included. The main point is to be responsible to the collective, to the country, and to the people. Perhaps this principle can also apply to young people in other disciplines." This book will not only be a favorite among music students but will also offer profound inspiration to young people in the arts and other disciplines.
