Some people know me because of my music and come and see me in my concerts but you very rarely see me or hear me in press or TV or radio magazines.

As an example, there is a Japanese composer / singer whose name is Tanimura [Shinji]: he has composed a song entitled entitled "Kazeno Komoriuta" and I have recorded my piano adaptation of this song and honestly I couldn't expect that it would be so difficult and challenging for me to perform my piano version of this beautiful song.

I am not what one calls a celebrity.

I would also like to mention pianists like Michel Petrucciani or Chick Сorea for whom I have great admiration in the jazz field.

I am rather discreet and shy!

In fact, among the 1000 titles which I have recorded in the past 35 years, there are less than 10% of classical titles.

There are many artists I would like to have the honour to cooperate with. To accompany Barbara Streisand or Paul McCartney or Elton John would be a dream for me as I have a lot of admiration for their voice, their talent and their charisma.
