What do you love most about your job?
Being involved in music is not like a job it's more like full-filling your life's purpose. There is so much variety in being a professional musician that I would recommend it to anyone. And I'd challenge anyone to find a more full-filling form of work. There's the creative side: songwriting and composition, there's the teaching side; helping others to become professionals in their own right. There's being part of a community of music lovers. And also the performance side, it's so engaging that while performing in a concert, music takes on a spiritual dimension. And there's not many professions that can say that!
What inspired you to start your own business?
It was a natural development from having a full timetable of students. When you get good at what you do, the phone starts to ring. And then when you business if full, the phone keeps ringing.
So, naturally I couldn't keep turning away the inquiring students, I found teachers for them. Now we have a team of teachers working in West London.
