We attended all of your recital/performances on the Queen Mary 2 in the last year. Your performances and artisanship have stayed with us since then. We especially appreciate your having introduced us to Janecek’s piano works. Familiar as we are with his operas and quartets, we were totally unaware of his piano works. Thank you, thank you, thank you. We hope to be in your audience once again.

These tunes come and go, some stay longer, but this one kept haunting me. It pretty much became the 'film score' to my entire China tour…

If someone were to asked me, what recordings I would take to a lonely island, I would put on top of my list Franz Schubert’s song cycle “Winterreise” (Winter Journey).
Some of the songs in this cycle are folk melodies, others offer deeply philosophical words of wisdom, and the accompanying piano becomes a companion on this winter journey highlighting and deepening the words of the poetry…

Here I am, sitting on a train from Switzerland to Germany, playing on my travel piano. Honestly, I thought I was done with it. After the initial excitement wore off, the foldable keyboard sat untouched for months—I was even about to donate it.
At first, I was thrilled by the idea of having easy access to a keyboard while on tour. But that excitement gradually faded.
Some of the original pros still hold up…
There is nothing quite like the energy of a live audience, be it in a concert hall or at sea
