Interview: Daniela Mastrandrea, Pianist, Composer & Arranger

What do you consider to be the most important ideas and concepts to impart to aspiring musicians? Always believe in yourself and in what you do, even if this involves a big sacrifice, as it often does. In the past, I would get discouraged and it will almost certainly happen again (we couldn’t not call ourselves human if it didn’t). Falling down is natural, getting back up is the real challenge. When you get up after a fall you are stronger than ever before! As Friedrich Nietzsche said “What does not kill you, fortifies you“, and he is right! Always pick yourself up and keep getting stronger! (via)]]>
