I don’t think it’s so much her age that’s impressive (I’ve seen younger kids

play the concerto) – it’s the fact that she had only had three years of
formal training up to that point.

A lot of interest or disinterest in Bach comes from how Bach is taught.
It’s pretty hard for a teacher to spoil Rachmaninov – a teacher could help
their student interpret the famous C-sharp minor prelude in the worst
possible way and the student would still love the piece.  But if the teacher
helps the same student interpret Bach badly, the student will absolutely
hate Bach, and they’ll blame Bach for it.  There are many teachers who just
have their students play the notes the way they’re marked on the page
without understanding how to come up with one’s own grand plan of dynamic
shaping and articulation (which MUST be done for any good Bach
interpretation).  Involving the student in this interpretive process is
critical for their engagement in the music.  I firmly believe this because,
so far, every high school student who has graduated under my study has done
so absolutely loving Bach’s music.
