“I have a habit of starting study projects from the ‘end’. My first serious attempts at understanding the style of Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert and Chopin were drawn from their late or final works.

Inevitably, the list of musicians who left their imprint on my playing is long and eclectic.”

“The singular greatest challenge I’ve experienced is the result of asking “why don’t we change the shape of the piano?”. It turns out this is at least a life’s work”
