KiteKat Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 (P.S. Re: "evil teacher and blah-blah..." - even though he mentions jokingly - just my humble opinion - - the teachers do tend to keep some of their pupils' creations......however a conservatory professor and a renowned successfull opera professional would not just keep some tape of a n y random 10 year old pupil... She s a w, and she taught and helped with whatever she could to develop his G-d sent gift - even switched from piano to singing after learning about his reading problem - unlike some of his expensive school teachers that just bullied or ignored ... ) ...sorry for this "cry for justice" but I think she deserves some credits too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzie Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I think ALL that Mika said about her and the lessons makes sense and is true: Alla has been living in the UK since 1991 - so at the beginning she must have had to give private lessons to make a living (Now she is obviously better off, having her own concerts and CDs...) As for the place of the mole, she must have given Mika such a hard time that he felt her eyes were talking... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
