Although students can only practice outside of class hours, says Chao, they have already learned a lot of basic chords, "and it's only the transitions that they're still a bit shaky with, because their hands are too small and it's hard to reposition smoothly, but Tao kids have amazing musical talent."
他說，雖然只有課餘時間可以練習，但短短一年的時間內，學生們就學會 F 到 G 的所有和絃。「只有轉調時，小孩子手太小，轉得還不太靈巧，但達悟族小孩的音樂天份還是令人吃驚。」
