I have a memory of a long time ago, I was with my father on an Italian television to try to be chosen as a testimonial for a TV commercial; after the selection a man came to me and said “Choose what you want, we want to give you a gift for participation” . I don’t know why, but out of everything I had to choose from (tons of children’s toys …) I chose a musical mini-keyboard and was one of the happiest children in the world.

I think that was the exact moment when I remembered that life has given me the joy of being a musician. After so many years I now understand that that child was trying to share a message: live to learn to be yourself.
