    3. Hi, Thank you for the link. Living in England and having children for whom music lessons in school (we live in a very enlightened borough in that respect) have given many opportunities, I was rather surprised by this comment: <http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/10/09/poland.your.emails/index.html> "I`ve been living in Poland for 8 years and run a music foundation. Poland is, in many respects, a land without music: no music in schools except the specialist music schools. The myth of Chopin is a myth. The absence of the arts, especially the performing arts, and well-organised team sports in Polish schools is a disaster for Polish society and its economy. The narrow approach to education is crippling the minds of intelligent and capable people. The ability of Poles to rise above their education once they get abroad is remarkable. What is needed is that they do the same here. *Richard Berkeley, Warsaw"* http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/10/09/poland.your.emails/index.html Bronwyn.
