where words fail, music speaks
It all started with a string...
Aged twelve I laid hands on my very first instrument. An instrument I still own. A western style 6-string that introduced me to the wonderful world of music.
Years went by and while interest in my guitar barely diminished there is still a whole musical dimension to discover. By the early 2010's my interest in travelling increased. It made me realise what a great opportunity I just received by learning a new instrument while travelling the world.
The instrument of choice - heavily influenced by great movies such as Deliverance - was a 4-string tenor banjo. Especially meeting a bunch of Italian scoundrels helped with learning the instrument, for the italian wedding tarantella is a staple on any banjo.
Shortly
after travelling the globe, a long lasting dream was fulfilled.
My journey through the world of music continued with practising the piano from these days on. With one of the greatest gifts I ever received, the Hammond Organ found its place in my instruments collection.
And the journey goes on...
