T: Every Sunday in Israel, they would play early music on the radio and that was my favourite music. #askandreas

A: I went to New York to study classical piano and there I took a baroque music class and my teacher was a harpsichordist. #askandreas

T: There I tried a harpsichord and got hooked. #askandreas

KK: Did anyone have to force you to practice (I've been reading Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother)? #askandreas

TH: No, I've always loved the piano. My parents pushed me as a young child. #askandreas

TH: Around the age of 15, it became my thing. #askandreas

KK: So Andreas, pianists have to do a lot of practice. But what about you and practice? #askandreas

AS: In school, I was a good student and did what was necessary to pass. #askandreas

AS: But in Basel, I started to learn with joy. And realised that a really good teacher is what inspires you to like learning. #askandreas

AS: I have a daughter who is 12 and I realise how incredible the schoolwork load is now. I'm glad I grew up in the 70s! #askandreas

AS: But she's happy with her teachers and likes school. But when I was in boys' choir, I don't remember having to be sent there. #askandreas

AS: Singing for me was never a duty. It was something we did. And it had a social component (playing football beforehand, etc.) #askandreas

TH: I discovered the fun of music when I started playing with people. It was much better to be with friends. #askandreas

KK: Yes, because piano practice can be all about being locked away from everyone. #askandreas

KK: This is a question: do you go to other people's concerts for fun? #askandreas

Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: I rarely go to concerts. If I know that I have to sing soon, it's hard for me to relax in a concert hall. #askandreas

Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: I will go to hear friends. So we went to hear @AustBrandenburg the other night. #askandreas

TH: I don't go to concerts so much any more. I'm surrounded by so much music, I like to have some silence. #askandreas

RT @krashangel: @MusicaVivaAU Please #askandreas when he will record a Caldara, Antonio (c.1670-1736) album. #askandreas

AS: We did research unpublished Caldara cantatas. Unfortunately, the project didn't happen. But I would like to revive the idea. #askandreas

AS: I'll use this visit to Australia to try to get that project on the road. #askandreas

KK: Andreas, would you consider singing contemporary music, e.g. Oberon? #askandreas

2011-03-04 15:10:47
Musica Viva Australia @MusicaVivaAU

AS: I find I have difficulties with contemporary music. I'm so much a child of the early music scene. #askandreas

AS: The focus becomes so much on getting tempo and measures right, that I can't focus on the music. #askandreas
