Do something! (You can't tell how you like it till you've done something..)


MA: I like it very much, but I don’t know what you’ll think of it.
SK: Neither do I. Let’s hear it.
MA: But what if you don’t like it?
SK: I can’t tell till I’ve heard it.

 A fabulous interview with Martha Argerich
 But one doesn’t choose to be a performer. 
One doesn’t choose one’s character.
I think one’s character is formed early and then you happen to be a performer later.


"But why not [Beethoven] Four? 
Perhaps because 
it’s wise not to touch what you really love? I  don’t know."
Martha Argerich
