MOVING CLASSICS INTERVIEW


" ... I accept that the most incredible achievements of our civilisation, including the sum total of music creation which we’ve preserved this far is at risk of annihilation, along with everything else. You can’t argue with a confirmed global temperature rise of at least two degrees and therefore with the chances for preservation. I miss the days when I could just listen to a piece of music and allow it to transform me without feeling scared everything Bach wrote will end up in a flood."
