पियानो की काली और सफेद चाबियाँ मुझे हमेशा से आकर्षित करती थीं, मेरे पिता ने मुझे बताया कि इन्हें कैसे बजाते हैं... और धीरे-धीरे मेरा रुझान पियानो की तरफ हो गया।
The piano by its black and white keys always attracted me, my father showed me how to use... and slowly I got into playing.

मुझे लगता है कि आप प्रसिद्धि और स्टारडम की परवाह किए बिना अपनी कलात्मक पसंद का पूरी तरह आनंद ले सकते हैं।
I think that you can absolutely enjoy your artistic passion without seeking for the cult of celebrity.

मैं आमतौर पर एक पॉप पियानोवादक हूँ, जिसकी अपनी एक रोमांटिक शैली है।
I am rather what we usually call a Pop pianist with my own romantic style.

मुझे सबसे चुनौतीपूर्ण गाने का तो याद नहीं, लेकिन मुझे याद है कि मैंने जितने भी गाने रिकॉर्ड किए हैं, उनमें से कई मेरे लिए काफी चुनौतीपूर्ण रहे हैं।
I do not remember the most challenging one but I remember that many of the titles I have recorded have been quite challenging for me.

मैं वह नहीं हूँ जिसे कोई सेलिब्रिटी कहे।
I am not what one calls a celebrity.

इंटरनेट ने नियमों को पूरी तरह से बदल दिया है। कुछ कलाकार सेलिब्रिटी बनने की कोशिश नहीं करते: इंटरनेट खुद यह काम कर देता है और उन्हें धीरे-धीरे मशहूर बना देता है... बिना इसके कि वे खुद कभी मशहूर होना चाहें।
Internet has considerably changed the rules. Some artists do not try to become celebrities: the internet does the job for them and makes them, slowly, famous.... without them wishing to become celebrated.

मैं स्वभाव से काफी रिजर्व और शर्मीला हूँ!

मेरे पिता को इस बात से कोई ऐतराज़ नहीं था कि मैं शास्त्रीय संगीत नहीं बजाता। संगीत में मेरी प्रगति के लिए उन्होंने हमेशा मेरी सराहना की, यानी किसी भी तरह के संगीत के लिए, लेकिन उन्होंने इस बात पर जोर दिया कि मैं संगीत अकादमी में अपनी ट्रेनिंग जारी रखूँ... हालाँकि, मैंने कभी अपने शिक्षकों को नहीं बताया कि मैं वीकेंड पर क्लबों में खुद अभ्यास करता था।
My father did not bother that I play not a classical music. He always congratulated me for my development in music, I mean in any music but, he hang on to continue training at the Academy of Music... however, I never mentioned to my teachers that I trained myself at weekends in clubs.

उदाहरण के लिए, तानिमुरा [शिंजी] नाम के एक जापानी संगीतकार और गायक हैं: उन्होंने "काजेनो कोमोरियुता" नाम का एक गाना बनाया है और मैंने इस गाने का पियानो वर्ज़न तैयार किया है। ईमानदारी से कहूँ तो मुझे उम्मीद नहीं थी कि इस खूबसूरत गाने के पियानो वर्ज़न को बजाना मेरे लिए इतना मुश्किल और चुनौतीपूर्ण साबित होगा।
As an example, there is a Japanese composer / singer whose name is Tanimura [Shinji]: he has composed a song entitled entitled "Kazeno Komoriuta" and I have recorded my piano adaptation of this song and honestly I couldn't expect that it would be so difficult and challenging for me to perform my piano version of this beautiful song.

कुछ लोग मेरे संगीत की वजह से मुझे जानते हैं और मेरे संगीत कार्यक्रमों में आते हैं, लेकिन प्रेस, टीवी या रेडियो पत्रिकाओं में आप मुझे बहुत ही कम देख या सुन सकते हैं।
Some people know me because of my music and come and see me in my concerts but you very rarely see me or hear me in press or TV or radio magazines.

काफी समय पहले, मुझे याद है कि मैंने शर्ली बेसी के साथ काम किया था और मैं उस पल को कभी नहीं भूल सकता जो मैंने उनके लिए और उनके साथ पियानो बजाते हुए बिताया था।
A long time ago, I remember having cooperated with Shirley Bassey and I will never forget this moment which I shared with her while playing for and with her.

जब मैं 14-15 साल का था, तो मैं कभी-कभी थोड़े बहुत पैसे कमा लेता था, लेकिन मुझे कोई शिकायत नहीं है क्योंकि बहुत जल्द ही मैं अपनी आजीविका ठीक से चलाने लगा था। दूसरे संगीतकारों ने भी मुझे पहचाना और उन्होंने मेरे साथ काम करने की इच्छा जताई। कम उम्र में ही कई जाने-माने कलाकारों ने मंच और स्टूडियो दोनों जगहों पर मेरी सेवाएं मांगीं। यह अनुभव बेहद उपयोगी साबित हुआ, संगीतकारों ने मुझे अलग-अलग संगीत स्थितियों और विभिन्न प्रयोगों से रूबरू कराया।
When I was 14-15 years old I was able to earn a little money from time to time but I'm not complaining since, very soon I could provide a normal living. I was discovered also by other musicians and they asked me to work with them. Even in my early age several well-known artists asked for my services both on the stage and in the studio. This experience proved to be very useful, musicians showed me various musical situations and various music experiments.

दरसअल, पिछले 35 वर्षों में मैंने जितने 1000 गाने रिकॉर्ड किए हैं, उनमें से 10% से भी कम शास्त्रीय (क्लासिकल) हैं।
In fact, among the 1000 titles which I have recorded in the past 35 years, there are less than 10% of classical titles.

दरसअल, हालाँकि मैंने कंज़र्वेटरी में शास्त्रीय पियानो की पढ़ाई की है, फिर भी मैं खुद को एक क्लासिकल पियानोवादक नहीं मानता।
In fact although I have studied in a Conservatory the classical piano, I do not consider myself a classical pianist.

मेरा जन्म 1953 में पेरिस में हुआ था। लेकिन मेरे जन्म के तुरंत बाद मेरा परिवार (मेरी एक बहन है) पेरिस के उपनगर रोमाइनविल के एक किराए के अपार्टमेंट में रहने चला गया। उस समय मेरे माता-पिता की हाल ही में शादी हुई थी और एक युवा विवाहित जोड़े के लिए पेरिस में फ्लैट मिलना बेहद मुश्किल था। उन्होंने द्वितीय विश्व युद्ध के बाद बने मकानों के ब्लॉक में एक फ्लैट ढूंढ लिया था - और यही वह जगह है जहाँ मैंने अपना बचपन बिताया।
I was born in 1953, in Paris. But soon after my birth my family (I have one sister) moved into a rent apartment in suburbs of Paris named Romainville. That time my parents were freshly married and it was extremely hard to find an apartment in Paris for a young married couple. To say they found a flat in a blocks of houses which was built after the second World War - and this is the place where I spent my childhood.

गिटारवादक पैट मेथेनी भी हैं जिनके साथ मैं काम करना चाहता हूँ: वह बजाते समय इतने优雅 और भावुक होते हैं कि मुझे यकीन है कि हम दोनों मिलकर एक बेहतरीन टीम बना सकते हैं।
There is also the guitar player Pat Metheny with whom I'd like to work with: he is so elegant and so emotional when he plays that I am sure that, together, we could make a good team.

आज, लांग लांग मेरे पसंदीदा क्लासिकल पियानोवादकों में से एक हैं.... सालो पहले मैं आर्थर रुबिनस्टीन का बहुत बड़े प्रशंसक हुआ करता था, लेकिन इसमें कोई शक नहीं कि फ्रांज लिस्ट और फ्रेडरिक चोपिन भी शानदार पियानो वादक थे - हालाँकि उनके प्रदर्शन को सुनने का आज कोई जरिया नहीं है।
Today, Lan Lan is one of my favourite classical pianists.... Years ago I had a great admiration for Arthur Rubinstein but I have no doubt that Franz Liszt and Frederic Chopin were also fantastic piano players - though there is no way to listen to them when they were performing.

सालों पहले, ऑस्ट्रेलिया के एक हवाई अड्डे पर, मेरी मुलाकात इत्तेफाक से डेविड हेल्फ़गॉट से हो गई। मैं जानता था कि वह मुझे थोड़ा पसंद करते थे और व्यक्तिगत रूप से मैं उनका बहुत बड़ा फैन था। हम मिलकर बहुत खुश हुए, गले मिले और हमारी बहुत ही गर्मजोशी से बातचीत हुई। उस समय के बाद से... करीब 20 साल बीत चुके हैं, मैं उनसे दोबारा नहीं मिला हूँ। मुझे लगता है कि वह एक बहुत अच्छे पियानोवादक हैं!
Years ago, while being in an airport in Australia, I happened to meet with David Helfgott. I knew that he was a bit fond of me and I was personally a fan of him. We were so happy to meet and hug and we had a very warm conversation together. Since that time.... about 20 years ago, I have not meet him again. I think that he is a very good pianist !

ऐसे कई कलाकार हैं जिनके साथ काम करने का मुझे सौभाग्य मिलना अच्छा लगेगा। बारबरा स्ट्रेिसैंड, पॉल मैकार्टनी या एल्टन जॉन के साथ गाना या उनके लिए संगीत बजाना मेरे लिए एक सपने जैसा होगा क्योंकि मैं उनकी आवाज, उनकी प्रतिभा और उनके करिश्मा का बहुत सम्मान करता हूँ।
There are many artists I would like to have the honour to cooperate with. To accompany Barbara Streisand or Paul McCartney or Elton John would be a dream for me as I have a lot of admiration for their voice, their talent and their charisma.

मैं मिशेल पेट्रुसियानी या चिक कोरिया जैसे पियानोवादकों का भी जिक्र करना चाहूंगा, जिनके लिए जैज़ के क्षेत्र में मेरे मन में बहुत आदर है।
I would also like to mention pianists like Michel Petrucciani or Chick Сorea for whom I have great admiration in the jazz field.
