Perfect Protege

Out of the two Hock studies, I enjoyed reading about the MI theory overall. The most interesting type of intelligence to me is the musical intelligence. Child protégés are so rare and astonishing in their ability to master a certain task, such as playing the piano. I found a video of a 6-year-old girl who picked up playing the piano from her grandmother. I am sure that if anyone heard her music, they would never guess her age.  Unrelated to the study is also the fact that this young pianist, as stated in the video, is surrounded by talented siblings. This would have a large effect on her interest in music. Protégés are blessed with whatever ability they are given, whether it was influenced by others or a God-given talent.
