Fekete has worked on arranging more than 800 songs for the music course, which is designed for primary school students, as well as compiling teaching materials, says Lei, adding that Fekete is one of eight foreign experts currently working for the company.

"Not every child will be a concert pianist, but having music in their life makes them happier and more confident," Fekete says.

Every day, Fekete gets up at 6:30 am and, after having breakfast with his family, he drives his son to school. He works until 5 pm, at which time he will go for a swim, before working on more music.

"Though I am 75, I have no plans to retire. As I have learned, 'if you rest, you rust'. I don't rest enough to rust," he says. "I want to enjoy my life here and to further share what I know with the young generation."
