If you were an advertisement, which would your slogan be?
“Music saves your life”, of course! But also “Hurry up and save the Earth”. We must do more for our planet.
What is your main inspiration when you are playing piano?
When I compose music, I’m inspired by what surrounds me. It can be a situation I’m living, the place where I am, nature, relationship or an issue that touches me.
Most artists say that through their art they learn more about themselves, heal injuries… Which aspects has music helped you?
Music has helped me become less shy, but also through many rough times.

Music is freedom. Thanks to music I can feel free, I have no worries and I feel relaxed. I think that thanks to music my life has a meaning.

Music gives unique emotions, why one should not try? Moreover, we only live once and we must take every chance.

Living on music and performing my music in several places in the world. I’d be happy to travel and get to know different cultures doing what I love: playing music.
