Although my family - parents and sister - all work in the personnel management business, their real passion is performing, amateur operatic societies and so on.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love working with talented young performers.
My work is very popular with performers, and there are theatre people who get what I'm doing and what tradition I'm working in. I'm very grateful to them - they're my people, who understand why I work the way I do.
My parents were opera singers and voice teachers, so growing up, I admired musicians and dancers.
I look at composers and conductors, anybody involved in music or writing or art in general; they got more done as they got older. If I can, I'll be one of those people because what I do is my passion.
I love to work with performers that are very different to me.
It is always an honor to work with those that share your passion for music and just enjoy making great music.
I'm not like my siblings, who are musical but can turn their hands to other professions! I'd always wanted to be involved in music - I'm a great believer in doing things that fulfil you.
There's a thing about film composing and conducting in my family.
I saw a lot of operas from backstage and watched a lot of rehearsals - my parents were singers.
My mom was an opera singer, and she gave up her career to raise a family. But she also taught my sisters how to sing.
