I can tell you some here are pretty snobby about what they consider to be bonsai and they have no affective filter
So, you have decided you want to become a famous pianist. You have purchased a piano at Toys-R-Us and you have read a book about piano playing.
You can already play the first 9 notes of Fur Elise.
You want to know more, so you join a forum about classical music, and tell that you want to join an orchestra and play the Chopin-Godowsky Etudes that you've heard seem to be a great piece of music. You are the 27th person that day with the same question.
You get a reply, that is slightly bored, as, well, the same question has come up over and over again, and you are being told that learning to play that will require different material and many, many years of study, training and practice.
And now you're offended and call them snobs?
