Composers often think in terms of music and not of an instrument itself.

I've always been very inspired by people who can make their instrument sound very natural.

Denmark is, of course is very much like Germany: in terms of culture, the same kind of thinking, etc.

Looking for inspiration in expression, I have actually always looked to singers and violinists. I have never really looked only at the recorder as a remedy for my expressions.

Each composer has their own language, and I try to meet the challenges, even if at first sight, they appear impossible.

Many people used to call me a child prodigy, but I never thought that. I knew that I had learned everything, that I had very good circumstances.

My father is a violinist and my mother is a pianist, so I've been hearing music all my life. I started playing at three and had my first music teacher at five.
