My father knew classical music very well. Driving in the car, listening to the radio, he could name every composer, every movement, what piece it was. I was fascinated by the way he recognized who wrote what.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Both of my mom's parents were music teachers, so I got a lot of knowledge about everything from classical music to jazz to musicals.
See my father knew a lot about music, he played the piano and he would do theory and stuff like that, but I didn't learn anything from him, but I played that for him and he liked it a lot.
My parents loved classical music. And my father adored Mozart. But for some reason, I always had a reaction against it.
My parents met in music school and my father was a music professor and conductor. Growing up, we always had classical and contemporary music playing. There was a lot of Mozart and the Beatles.
My father was a classical musician and my mother was a writer.
I had a very thorough grounding in music; I'd grown up around songs. My parents listened to a lot of music. My dad was majorly into jazz, which was absolutely a big influence on me, even if it was more subconsciously as a kid.
My mother was a classical pianist and my stepfather was an industrialist who was passionate about composing contemporary music.
Music was around in my family in two ways. My mother would occasionally sing to me, but I was mostly stimulated by the classical music my father had left behind. I had an ear for music, I suppose, so that's what began my interest in music.
I also have a big love of classical music played on piano because this is the environment I grew up in my brother being one of the great masters in this world.
I didn't grow up with classical music. My father was a folk music singer.
