I'm proud of my kids, they are doing what they want to do.

The best thing about this band is I'm the leader!

I don't regard myself as a great classical or jazz pianist. I like country music, but I'm not a great player. I just like music. Drums 'n' bass is pretty exciting and I'd love to explore it.

At the Isle of Wight, the sound went out and kind of kept on going. And I wasn't... when I came off stage I was kind of unhappy about how we had played. But now, I listen back to those recordings and it's not bad.

Next year I'm going to be a guesting soloist with orchestras all over Europe, to start off with.

I consider everything I compose a gift.

My sons are into German music, but they are into all kinds of music.
