I feel that music takes you beyond the natural realm and even though we try to describe the experiences, we cannot completely find the words to do so.
Fay Lamour, singer-songwriter/pianist
The limitations on live performances. Social media has been lovely, but nothing beats the rush of sitting up straight, breathing out and playing that first note.
Filippo Gorini, pianist
I am at my best in works that require deep concentration, a good sense of long structures and continuous, unbroken tension. I am least comfortable with miniatures and character pieces.
Angela Hewitt, pianist
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.
