‘For me, success is the feeling of complete immersion on stage — a loss of self where music exists without effort or self-consciousness’
‘I see music as the expression of deeply human and universal emotions, and it is through connection with others that I nurture my inspiration’
‘A composition only truly comes alive when performed live, so relationships with musicians are essential.’
‘Listen to as much music as you can and be curious to discover new things. Get out of the practice room and go to concerts.’
