When in your teaching, does your piano student meet the description of "Musician"?
Is there a certain point at which the transition occurs? What is the criteria for this
"accomplishment?"
Is it based on "Artistry"? Or does a student who is making progress and comes to lessons with good intentions and attitude qualify as a musician. Does it require certain student characteristics?
Do you feel,as I do, that once a student enters the studio, they are a "Young Musician in Training"?

According to my present teacher, I have more or less met the description of a Musician.
There is no certain point, everyone meets it at a different point in life due to being trained differently.
The criteria: playing music with intelligence, musicality and technicality,all of them not just 1 or 2.
