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.
That was when I realised that music is the most profound, magical form of communication there is.
I was growing up listening to Queen. Freddie Mercury threw those incredible melodies into his songs.
There’s a lot of music that sounds like it’s literally computer-generated, totally divorced from a guy sitting down at an instrument.
