I am a showman in the traditional sense, but modern, too. I like to use sets and lighting to create magic.
I first picked up a violin aged five - I just assumed everyone played.
I love reading but I never last very long because I fall asleep right away.
When I'm not on tour, I love to have a long breakfast at home in my garden.
I know that when I like music, when it touches my heart, that it will touch your heart, too. That, I think, is the secret to my success.
I admire Johann Strauss a lot. I believe he was a genius of his time.
