Curiosity is a virtue of paramount importance for the musician. Unfortunately, many schools teach the opposite. Many schools stress the importance of knowledge or the act of appearing erudite in an otherwise ignorant world. However, it is curiosity which enabled us to learn thousands of new words per year as children, it is curiosity which fueled our dreams of becoming wealthy and powerful as teenagers, and it is curiosity which led to the achievement of some of the greatest inventions of mankind.
