When you’re playing such brilliant music everyday, the last thing you wanna do is trying to write womething of your own that’s crude and not as good.

And the thing with classical music is, so many of these themes are so singable. They are very melodic. I mean they are complicated but …you know, people are kinda taught to like, be afraid of classical music or something.

It is hard sometimes for people to separate that loving something, like I love classical music so much, but then understanding that I’m not right for it, that’s always very hard.

There are certain things that come naturally with listening to a lot of classical music—certain things that happen to your ear. There’s a lot more harmonic range, as opposed to pop music that’s built on three chords. It is, and it’s great.
