I grew up on the banks of the St. Lawrence River

Nature, horizon, wind

 

Where silence was music

Silence is the most beautiful music in the world

 

But, I cannot resist

The piano is there, in front of me

Like a refuge, a delight

 

I love music that sings and brings joy

Music that catches you by surprise

Music that carries you away



Passionate, free, intense

Always changing

Profoundly alive
