During Christmas time, on German television they show films with three or four episodes, and I quite like the feeling of waiting for the next episode.

I like the influence of pictures on music and the other way around.

I am surprising myself [at] each show, and the delivered piano often surprises me. Sometimes the piano is so old that I don't have to prepare it, and sometimes I have a concert grand!

I get a lot of emails where people are writing me their experiences, how they discovered my music, what they feel... they motivate me to carry on with what I am doing.

I really like stories, so in a way it doesn't matter for me if they are real or fiction.

I like to express true emotions under the cover of melancholy: It includes fulfilment and pain, which describes human existence.

Memories were in my mind during nearly all the concerts I've done, and I realized the deep connection to my childhood, when I went out in the morning and the only thing my mom said was, "Come back before dark." What trust and what freedom!
