“Film music should have its own life, it's not just about accompanying the image.”

“I think the great thing about music is that it's a universal language.”

“The piano is a very intimate instrument. It's you, your hands and this piece of wood and strings.”

“Every project is different. You can't just apply a formula.”

“I'm always trying to find a balance between the realism of the music and the fantasy.”

“I always think that the best collaborations are when you're slightly out of your comfort zone.”
