Music is a way to dream together and go to another dimension.

Salieri was a pupil of Gluck. He was born in Italy in 1750 and died in Vienna in 1825. He left Italy when he was 16 and spent most of his life in Vienna. He's the key composer between classic music and romantic music. Beethoven was the beginning of romantic music, and he was the teacher of Beethoven and Schubert.

So I like to make music, and I like to share music. This is also a gift.

When I had my first voice lesson I was 15 years old. And I had a really good teacher. This is what made all the difference. A good teacher will teach you the technique, but also how to listen to your voice.

The goal is always to make a nice tableau painting with the voice. The more color I can find, the more shadow I can find - the goal is always to make more nuance and colors.

I did a concert... in September with the Berlin Philharmonic... They're great musicians, and there's always something to learn from them.

It's not difficult to sing in German; it's difficult to feel in German. This takes time. It's a culture.
