The book is a most interesting and refreshing chronicle covering twenty eventful years of the gradual rise to world fame of the phenomenal Filipina virtuoso pianist Cecile Licad. From her birth in 1961 to her garnering the much coveted Leventritt Gold Medal award in 1981, she was the first Filipino and the first Asian to ever win the distinctive honor after a hiatus of ten years, when nobody was ever awarded. . In this book, the mother tells of her many joys and anxieties, her loneliness and deprivations and the parental sacrifice she and her husband had to go through to lend support to a world-class artist.
