Everything you experience in life goes into your music and your interpretations. Talking with friends, reading books, going to the theatre, travelling, seeing a movie, reading the news, experiencing the tragedy of this awful pandemic….all of that ends up in what you produce later on at the piano.

Shirley Smart, jazz cellist
Never let anyone tell you what you can or cannot so, or perhaps more – do and do not want to do musically. That is your journey.
