Why are some musical intervals labeled "major" while others are called "perfect"? It sounds like arbitrary music theory snobbery, but there is actually a brilliant mathematical rule behind it.

Itzhak Perlman, Midori, Sarah Chang, Gil Shaham, the roster of Dorothy DeLay’s studio at Juilliard reads like a "Who’s Who" of violin history. But where did her genius come from? In this video, we trace DeLay's jaw-dropping pedagogical family tree. From the expressive freedom of Eugène Ysaÿe to the hyper-disciplined mechanics of the Russian and French schools, discover how DeLay combined history’s greatest traditions into one simple rule: teach the student, not the subject.
