I always liked stories that carry on and have a different format from the normal music video.

When I'm walking with my father through the woods, and we reach a place where you see so far that your ego suddenly shrinks because you are so touched by the dimension of your surroundings.

My music is also one part of my inner process, and people also seem to connect with me on that - especially the ones who have the same questions for their own lives.

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!

I can't really say that film music inspired me; it is more the films themselves, in connection with the music.

I was bored to death and thinking more about the minibar and the after-show party than the performance.

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!
