![]() ![]() This goes along the lines of "Asians are great at everything" stereotypes and there might be some truth to it. I forgot the exact details, but one of the primary reasons for this is that their languages highly depend on variations of tones/pitches which isn't the same for most European languages ( i believe Scandinavian languages are the exception, don't remember.) The rate of absolute pitch/perfect pitch is higher among Asians than it is among Europeans.įar east asian populations (Koreans, Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese etc) do have a higher average in IQ compared to most European groups, and African, and south american. I know it seems weird enough but western classical music is a much bigger and more lucrative market in far east asia than it is anywhere else (including Europe) in the world. There are over 30 million piano students in China alone, more than Sweden's or Norways TOTAL population alone xD.īut yeah, I don't believe that Asians are at a genetic advantage when it comes to classical piano. It's just that their culture encourages it a lot more than our culture does. The cultural atmosphere of pre-civil rights America is what drew so many musicians to jazz (even classical aficionados gave up on classical because of racial discrimination.read about charles mingus if you want an example.) Similarly, it's like saying people of African descent are naturally better at jazz because it was a genre pioneered and dominated by them. Countries of the pacific rim are some of the most populous on the planet/high population densities. So even w/ a common genetic marker incidence rate, ie said trait expected to appear x percent of the time, then the math swings things in their favor, so let's say some combination of genetic traits that sets someone up for piano success happens at. Then in a much larger population, you will see more total individuals with said traits. generally it's probably safe to say, given the importance those cultures place on excelling at the instrument, your pool of observable individuals is much larger. there's just more Asian pianists.Įxpression of the traits is high driven by environment. Incredible!Īdded 1 year ago Amazing talent, this child is well on his was to fame.Īdded 1 year ago Wow!!! Amazing child, can't help but wonder how far he'll go.Nature loads the gun, people pull the trigger, societal and cultural influences likely helps to increase the phenotypic expression of these traits.
