The advice I am giving always to all my students is above all to study the music profoundly... music is like the ocean, and the instruments are little or bigger islands, very beautiful for the flowers and trees.

I think often sadness is a great place to get songs from.

Music is the divine way to tell beautiful, poetic things to the heart.

Music is always changing and the changes are unpredictable.

I was growing up listening to Queen. Freddie Mercury threw those incredible melodies into his songs.
