I have always liked black and white! It is simple and the colour of the piano.

Challenges are the key in life. You always have to challenge yourself and try to get to different states.

Everybody improvises without noticing it. Life is about improvising. You can't control what happens in your life, I mean, you don't know what can happen in your life today. So you somehow improvise.

My music is very emotional. The reason why I want to play music is very emotional. I want to call out my emotions and package them into music.

My biggest musical dream is to keep playing all my life. There's nothing bigger than that and that's very challenging because you have to satisfy yourself at every stage.

For the piano and me it is always a blind date! I meet different pianos every single day. I can't take my piano with me like a bassist can take his instrument. So whenever I arrive I am a bit nervous to see what kind of piano is waiting for me.

Music taught me how to always be patient and focused, and to train the little concentration in myself.
