‘There’s no substitute for practice, but what truly nourishes my inspiration is simply listening to music.’
Interviews with musicians, composers and conductors
‘There’s no substitute for practice, but what truly nourishes my inspiration is simply listening to music.’
‘That rising flow which appears (not always, sadly), when it feels as though it’s not you performing the music but music itself being performed by you — this is a truly astonishing feeling’
‘Use every means to bring people to concerts. It is our job, as performers, to win them over.’
‘I make music in a way that I respect, sharing from the depths of my heart and soul.’
‘Every musician should take responsibility for audience development. Rather than lamenting low attendance, we should ask: What can I do to connect more people with music?’
