French people seem to know that playing a classical orchestral instrument is a big decision, like Germans. It's as big as ballet and dance are to 3 year olds in the US, but here in the US we never hear about it.
I have 2 examples as evidence, seeing Celine Dion and another French singer react to encountering the instrumentalists while practicing their craft... I know, I was very shocked. They had a strong and resolute reflex.
It's interesting I just decided on hoping for an athletic Russian guy to have a daughter with... though I want to reside in Freiburg, Germany for now.
