we can almost call this zen practice! some schools of zen monks do the exact same thing, growing thier own food, cooking, doing house chores, not just out of life's necessity,but also as part of the training. i think it's a great way to train the mind and will. I'm Nick Ong' friend, congratulations!!!
minimum age is 18; the people in the video are in their twenties. The groups are generally a mix of students, professionals, teachers and amateurs. All must have 1) experience practicing regularly at a young age and 2) experience playing alone on stage. There is no repertoire requirement - participants do not audition at the piano. Often, I never hear participants play the piano (except for the piece they learn during the workshop).

Is there an age limit for this workshop ? I noticed that all of the participants seem fairly young.
