Cand ai inceput sa compui si cand ti-ai dat seama ca acesta este drumul pe care vrei sa-l urmezi in cariera ?

Eu stiu ca ma ocup cu muzica ... Ori compun, ori cant, ori orchestrez ori lucrez in studio. Niciodata nu am stiut sa delimitez bine lucrurile astea. Am perioade cand compun mai mult, alte perioade cand am mai multe concerte ca pianist sau sef de orchestra.

Care a fost prima piesa care ti-a adus satisfactii ca si compozitor ?

Toate piesele pe care le-am compus sunt o parte din mine si cred ca fiecare inseamna ceva pentru mine.
Am cateva preferinte: Mihai Traistariu - "Cat de frumoasa esti", Marcel Pavel - "De Dragul Tau", Nico & Vlad - "Pe-o Margine De Lume".

Ce influente muzicale si-au pus amprenta, de-a lungul timpului, pe stilul tau de a compune (stiluri muzicale, compozitori, artisti) ?

Muzica clasica si de jazz si-au pus mult amprenta in muzica mea, eu fiind absolvent de Conservator la pian clasic.
Printre compozitorii preferati sunt: Bach , Rachmaninov, John Willimas, David Foster, Sting, Phill Collins, Dave Grusin.

Ai mai colaborat cu Nico sau cu Vlad Mirita (sau cu amandoi) inaintea Selectiei Nationale Eurovision 2008 ?

When did you start composing and when did you realise that is the path for your career to follow?

I know I deal with music. I compose or I sing or I arrange or I work in the studio ... but there are no limits between them. There are times when I compose more, other times when I have more concerts as a pianist or orchestra conductor.

What was the first song that brought satisfaction to you as a composer ?
