‘Keep on keeping on and be happy along the way. The journey isn’t always easy but it should bring you happiness.’
Matthew Xiong, pianist
Stay humble and keep learning.
Dorothy Lewis-Griffith, pianist
The greatest challenge of my career was that I wanted not only to be a musician, but to live all of life. I wanted to have a family and experience the other joys of living. In that sense, I was my own greatest challenge.
Manu Martin, composer
I love the colours and the emotion of music. Film music for me has been such a part of my journey that I sometimes imagine images, like a music video, to put myself in a state of mind when I’m composing, even if the piece I am creating is not intended to be a visual.
Margaret Marshall OBE, soprano
It is the music that provides the inspiration. I have always felt incredibly fortunate that I had the opportunity to sing this wonderful music.
Toke Møldrup, cellist
