For a young pianist it is not always easy to find a clear direction, and you are often met with many demands and advice from different people that can seem confusing. In addition to this, we are now in a very demanding time that does not necessarily make it easier to find motivation and a creative drive.

In this interview with Leif Ove Andsnes, he places particular emphasis on listening to your inner voice and finding the passion and love for the music.

We share this with you now and hope that it may be a positive contribution in a difficult time. Maybe now, in a time with low activity,, it can be a good opportunity for reflection to find your own voice as a pianist and musician.
