It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Check out For Children

and Mikrokosmos, a series of numbered short student pieces written in gradually increasing difficulty and complexity. (But you're a piano teacher and probably know all about them.) Bartok himself proposed an order for selections of them to be performed in recital. Deceptively simple -- obviously, Bartok enjoyed the challenge of doing creative things with pieces technically simple enough for the youngest students.

I wish more of today's major composers would challenge themselves with projects like that.
