‘We need to have the bravery to trust the music itself to be its own biggest advocate’
‘It’s those rare moments when you forget everything else and are completely inside the music.’
‘When at a concert you create the intended mood and the audience is so quiet that one could hear the proverbial pin drop, when you know you have played as well as the image in your mind’
‘Perform as much as you can: whether it be at your school, the local pub, the village hall, busking outside Argos…’
‘Talk up to audiences. Make everything authentically and unapologetically rich, complex, mysterious, tentacular, extraordinary, a little intimidating, perhaps, but ultimately more seductive because of that.’
