I Listen To All Kinds Of Music

When I Was Younger I Was Completely Without Money - When I Was Studying In Budapest, When I Was A Refugee

However, I Began Composing As Soon As I Started Taking Piano Lessons.

I Know Already The Music I Will Write. But The Words? I Have Not Yet Decided.

I Lived Under The Nazis And Under The Communists.

I Was Fifteen Years Old, And I Hardly Knew How To Play A Simple Bach Prelude On The Piano When I Began To Compose Music, And At The Most Advanced Level. I Had Never Studied Such Things As Harmony.
