"As always, Mr. Berman combines sage advice with an approach to teaching which is the opposite of Procrustean. He is interested in helping the student to improve his particular personality rather than apply one particular method to all students. This is the most difficult and yet the essential dimension of inspired teaching, and Mr. Berman has always been a distinguished exponent."—Emanuel Ax
