![]() Franny knows she's the best pianist in town, even if her classmate Nancy has the money to afford a better teacher. I don't want to get too much into the plot, but it felt realistic to this former-child-musician, and even though the town of Rusty Nail was full of stereotypes, the time period definitely heightened the sense of isolation, paranoia, and the fear of standing out clashing with the desire to show everyone you're special. The novel itself hit close to home for me, as I started piano lessons at age 4, changed teachers at 9 (close to 10, the age of the protagonist is), and had BIG ambitions for (and BIG emotions about) my music. Anyway, these misrepresentations, though slight, cost the book a star from me. I think the given description does a disservice to the brooding mood Rachmaninoff has created. Indeed, the beat is at a moderate pace, though the piano has a lively motor, playing six notes per beat. The problem: "Moderato" literally means at a moderate tempo. The intro also describes the first section of the book as quick and lively, naming it "Moderato" after the tempo marking for the first movement of Rachmaninoff's 2nd concerto. There is even the concerto grosso, which treats a GROUP as a soloist of sorts, but even if that's considered too arcane for the average reader, I think they can handle the possibility of 2-3 soloists in a concerto. For the record, a concerto does NOT always mean there's only one soloist it may mean two or three (directly contradicting the book's explanation)-or even four, as Bach composed a concerto for four harpsichords.
