“Some musicians say that a piano is a percussion instrument because of the way you hit the keys. Other musicians, having looked inside the piano, disagree and say it’s a stringed instrument. In either group, the belief is that staunch that they won’t change their view come hell or high water. At the end of the phrase, it doesn’t matter, what matters is they treat each other with respect. Like the piano, humanity needs both to function and without one or the other, there is no music.”
