For me, the acoustic piano is much more than just an instrument; it is a lifelong companion and a daily source of inspiration. Every day, this wonderful instrument gives me moments of clarity and creativity.
The connection I have with the piano is independent of any style—whether classical, jazz, or improvisation. It is the sheer presence, the tangible mechanics, and the depth of sound that captivates me. Throughout my entire life, the piano has accompanied me through all phases, moods, and challenges. It has always been there to capture my emotions and transform them into music.
What makes the acoustic piano so special is the immediate, physical experience. You don't just play it, you feel the sound. The vibrations of the soundboard are transmitted through your fingers, into the room and deep inside you. It is this pure, unadulterated sound, which requires no electronic amplification and arises directly from the interaction of wood, felt and strings. It is this purity that is the ultimate source of inspiration for me. Every note, every chord is unadulterated and tells an honest story. For me, playing the piano is a daily ritual that grounds me and inspires me at the same time. It is a dialogue that never ends and gives me the opportunity to rediscover myself again and again.
