SAYINGS ABOUT PIANO…
“Life is like a piano... what you get out of it depends on how you play it.”
“Love is a piano dropped from a fourth story window, and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
“One man gets nothing but discord out of a piano; another gets harmony. No one claims the piano is at fault. Life is about the same. The discord is there, and the harmony is there. Study to play it correctly, and it will give forth the beauty; play it falsely, and it will give forth the ugliness. Life is not at fault.”
“[The piano is] able to communicate the subtlest universal truths by means of wood, metal and vibrating air.”
“A lawyer's relationship to justice and wisdom is on a par with a piano tuner's relationship to a concert. He neither composes the music, nor interprets it-he merely keeps the machinery running.”

When the well-known pianist Kong Xiangdong first made it big in the city in the early 1990s, he was called the "piano prince." His smart looks and passionate music won the hearts of many women fans.

Now the "prince" has revealed his new look - with hair shaved off.
"It is very environmentally friendly," Kong said, smiling. "I never need to use shampoo or a hair dryer!"

The real reason for the change is that Kong started to lose his hair.

From an ordinary piano student to an internationally renowned musician, the 38-year-old Shanghainese pianist is now president of a piano school that has accepted more than 20,000 students during the past nine years.
