Music had been my first love among the arts, and I was fascinated by it, as I still am.

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 always had a fascination with music.

I always had a love of music, from the time I was a little kid, dressing up and singing along with Michael Jackson songs.

Since I was a child, I always loved music that made me want to dance. As a teenager, I used to dance the night away to electronic music.

I loved music from earliest childhood - from as long as I can remember.

I was always into music. I think everyone is when they're a teenager, as a way to drown out the world.

Music, from the time I was probably about five years old, was my obsession. I was going to say 'passion,' but I really was obsessed; I really didn't want to do anything else.

I was always in love with music, but my parents never really saw that I had talent, and it was really just by chance that I made it into the Menuhin School, and from then on my life changed. And that was when I realized, OK, this is what I want to do. But, until then, it was really just a passion, a hobby.

Music was like my first real toy. I was an only child for a while, and I was alone a lot of the time - and I liked it. I still like being alone.
