What is your earliest musical memory?
I think my first musical memory is when I was four or five years old, I was watching on TV a Mark Knopfler concert with Eric Clapton also. I had a stripe on my head as he used to do and I was pretending I was playing guitar with a tennis racquet trying to imitate exactly as he was doing.
If you could play another instrument, what would it be?
I would like to play five string banjo, sitting in a rocking chair in front of my little cabin near the bluegrass hill...
What’s on your playlist right now?
Black Sabbath, Tchaikovsky, Iron Maiden, Donizetti, Tony Bennett and Bill Evans, Hamad Jahmal, Rory Gallagher, Handel, Oscar Peterson, Rinat Ibragimov playing Bottesini, a bit of Carnatic music from South India...
