Another is a story told by Peter Mitchell when he gave his students a violin lesson. He said that he had the honor to play in front of the master when he was young, and he felt bad at home, thinking that the master would leave in a flash, but the master said it was very good. He was angry and felt that the master was a hypocrite. Later, I was on an equal footing with the master, and asked again, I was so bad back then, how could you applaud in good conscience? The master was very angry and said whether you pulled this section, I have never seen this fingering; whether you pulled that section again, that kind of treatment is refreshing. For the master performer, he only cares about the beautiful side he appreciates, rather than nitpicking.
The first story is fate, the second is the way to get along, both are indispensable.
